NBA (DR)

While he broke everything for his first campaign in the United States, Victor Wembanyama is already establishing himself as the potential new darling of the NBA.

And it could also translate financially with a possible solid gold contract shortly…

This has been seen more and more in recent years, but the NBA is above all a business that must operate as much as possible.

It is for this reason that the league has become greatly sanitized over time, in order to open up to a wider audience, whether in basketball arenas or in front of television screens.

It is in this last area that Adam Silver reaps the most profits.

For several weeks, the NBA had been in negotiations with different groups for the broadcast of its matches and it would obviously be NBC which would have won the auction.

We are talking about a simply incredible financial agreement and inevitably, it will benefit everyone and therefore also the players. Salary specialist, journalist Keith Smith has drawn a crazy conclusion:

New explosion coming for NBA salaries

With a potential $7 billion annual media deal nearing completion, NBA players could earn up to $95 million per year on a supermax contract in the future. CRAZY.

Already today, player salaries are turning heads, with Luka Doncic, for example, eligible for a mind-blowing contract worth $346 million over five years a few hours ago.

But such an amount to become nothing more than a pittance in the coming seasons.

It’s completely insane… and since the Legion Hoops account chose to highlight Victor Wembanyama, fans went wild for him.

It’s 100% certain that Wemby will get a billion dollar contract at some point, if he stays healthy.

Wemby could become the first player to sign a billion-dollar contract

Without going to such extremes, Victor Wembanyama can be calm about his financial future. Player salaries should once again explode in the medium term and the Spurs pivot has already established himself as a superstar. In other words, he will be entitled to a thicker slice of the pie.
