The minimum salary levels for the 2024-25 season have seen an approximate increase of 3.36% from the previous season, reflecting the rise in the NBA’s salary cap this year.<\/p>\n

To motivate teams to sign veteran players, those with three or more years of experience signed on minimum-salary contracts will only count as $2,087,519 against the salary cap\u2014the same as the minimum for players with two years of experience.<\/p>\n

Earnings for NBA Two-Way Contract Players<\/h2>\n

Since 2017, the NBA has implemented two-way contracts, which allow teams to maintain additional players beyond the standard 15-member season roster. Players under two-way contracts may spend the entire season in the G League or participate in up to 50 of their team’s 82 regular-season games. They are also allowed to be inactive team members during games.<\/p>\n

Players with less than four years of NBA experience are eligible for these contracts, and teams may sign up to three two-way players.<\/p>\n

These contracts provide a salary of $578,577 annually, which is half the amount of the rookie minimum salary.<\/p>\n
