Payday in the NBA 💰 The league’s new $76B media rights deal will immediately boost revenue by over 30% next year. But what does that mean for the players? Under the collective bargaining agreement, players receive 50% of league revenue, but salary caps can only increase by up to 10% annually. For the next few years, that 10% cap is likely to be maxed out and if this growth continues throughout the decade, the salary cap could reach $365M, with Supermax contracts (up to 35% of a team cap) hitting $127M per year 😵‍💫 This chart shows the potential scenarios for the league’s financial trajectory over the next decade. #sportsball #nba #mediarights #cba #datavisualization #basketball #contract
