SALT LAKE CITY – Spencer Dinwiddie won the lottery on Saturday.
Not that lottery.
But thanks to playing in Saturday’s game against the Utah Jazz, the Dallas Mavericks’ guard hit the jackpot.
When he played for Brooklyn, Dinwiddie signed a three-year contract for nearly $60 million in the summer of 2021. It was a sign-and-trade contract between the Nets and Washington Wizards, which would pay Dinwiddie a bonus of $2,171,427 if he played 50 games during the 2022-23 season.
Well, the Mavs-Jazz game was the 50th game Dinwiddie has played in this season.
