$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.

He was just named the 9th best point guard in the league by HoopsHype. How crazy is it that the 9th best point guard in the league is making more than $55,000,000 per year?
