From Chad Ford's twitter Note on Grizzlies: Teams can pay anything from 80% to 120% of rookie scale amount. In 95% of cases, teams pay the 120% amount
The Grizzlies organization is the drunk girl at the party that everyone is trying to take advantage of. Morey get r done!
I'm pretty sure that 95% goes to 100% when you're dealing with lottery picks. It's only the really low 1st rounders where the team feels the player is not worth the slotted salary. Otherwise, considering lottery picks are severely underpaid by free market standpoint, lowballing them is stupid beyond belief.
