G League to offer $125,000 contracts to elite prospects

MIAMI (AP) — The G League will begin offering "select contracts" worth $125,000 next year to elite prospects who are not yet eligible for the NBA, a move that could slightly lessen the handful of one-and-done players at the college level.

It is unclear how the players would be selected, but the league said Thursday it is establishing a working group to identify players who could be offered the contract.

Players will be eligible to sign the select deal if they turn 18 by Sept. 15 prior to the season that they would spend in the G League.
