The NBA G League will do away with its “A” and “B” payment tiers for the 2018-19 season, and instead raise G League salary to $7,000 a month for all players. It amounts to $35,000 for a five-month season, the league announced in a press release Tuesday.
Previously, players in the G League could earn an “A” salary of $26,000 per season, while players earning a “B” salary would earn $19,000 per season. Those on two-way contracts with an NBA team will still earn more than that.
The league indicated their salaries will be $77,250, prorated based on how many days are spent on their NBA G League roster while they will earn a prorated version of the NBA minimum contract for the days they’re called up to the parent team.
