Kristaps Porzingis is due for a big raise.
Many players still on their rookie contacts are if the new Collective Bargaining Agreement is ratified.
Porzingis salary will go up by 15 percent in 2017-18 and the following year he’ll get a 30 percent bump.
“That’s not bad huh?” said Porzingis, the No. 4 pick in the 2015 NBA Draft. “I knew the percentages. It’s never money for me first. But it’s cool that a lot of money is being thrown around in this league.”
Porzingis should continue to get money thrown at him if he continues to improve.
