$229,000,000 4-year deal agreed to by De’Aaron Fox with the San Antonio Spurs. Another crazy deal to a player who has never won anything. He’s a great player, but I don’t even think he’s an all star. Making over $50,000,000 per year as an NBA player when most people in the country have no idea who you are is crazy…
Yeah they definitely overpaid on this one. I don't understand why they would give him such a deal. Sure they don't want him to leave for nothing but I doubt other teams would have been willing to pay this much as well, very strange. While of course Fox is a more than just solid player, as you say he is not even all star material, won nothing and overall isn't even close to being a franchise player (that would warrant such a payday). NBA these days....
I couldn't agree more. That is really too much. He averaged 19.7 points last season, and I don't think that's enough for him to deserve that kind of salary. That bag is similar to what a face of the franchise player gets. His agent is definitely good at negotiations to be able to secure such a contract. Well, let's see if the Spurs’ move turns out to be good or just another waste of money. Tbh, I don't know why or how the Spurs came to that decision.
