    I always wondered how much players get for those 10 day contracts.

    I think it is 2 bucks and a half eaten bag of Doritos.

    That's close DaDa. It's actually not 2 bucks, but rather a $2 coupon off the next bag of Doritos with a team option for salsa dip.

    I'm guessing that it's a prorated minimum contract.

    So that means if they end up signing him for the rest of the year he'll get the rest of the bag of doritos?

    Sure. But since he wasn't around during the beginning of the season, a bunch of the doritos have already been taken by the owner. :(

    This thread is almost as amusing as the toy poodle thread in the hangout.

    No one takes serious of the Q itself? even the starter himself?

    Well I figure we can get the ha-ha posts out of the way until someone answers the question. Otherwise it'll just fall off the frontpage.

    Friend and me were wondering because we were like "I want to play in the nba!! Hell I'll take a 10-day contract!!" "Wait a minute...how much does one of those pay?"

    Well I was being serious when I said this:



    Judging by what the Player's Union usually goes for, I think it makes as much sense as anything else.

    I understand it is based upon that players years in the league...IE, Mark Jackson's 10 day contract was significantly higher than Mike Wilkes.

    According to this http://www.***********.com/minimum-nba-salary.shtml

    Years of Service 2004-05
    0 - 385,277
    1 - 620,046
    2 - 695,046
    3 - 720,046
    4 - 745,046
    5 - 807,546
    6 - 870,046
    7 - 932,546
    8 - 995,046
    9 - 1,000,000
    10+ - 1,100,000

    Minimum is 4,698.50 + per diem a game to a max of $13,414.63 + per diem a game. A 10 day contract usually has 4-6 games. So about $19,000 to $80,500 depending on experience. Not a bad chunck of change for 10 days. You might not even see any game action - only practice! Where do I sign up!
