"Like I told the guys earlier, once he turns 21 and is able to drink, it's over."- Jalen Rose after LeBron scored 56 on him


 
 

Zach Randolph: Drafted 19th overall in 2001. Signed to rookie salary scale contract for that year. Signed to a 6 year, $84 million extension in November 2004. Contract contains performance bonuses than add a total of about $25 million to the contract. Nasty.

Marko Jaric: Signed and traded to a 6 year, $37,875 million contract in August 2005. Bought out in December 2010. Buyout amount not listed because I don't know what it is yet.

Hasheem Thabeet: Drafted 2nd overall in 2009. Signed to rookie salary scale contract for that year.

O.J. Mayo: Drafted 3rd overall in 2008. Signed to rookie salary scale contract for that year.

Mike Conley: Drafted 4th overall in 2007. Signed to rookie salary scale contract for that year.

Steven Hunter: Signed a 5 year, $16.24 million contract in August 2005. Contract had a 7.5% trade kicker, and performance bonuses currently listed as "unlikely."

Marc Gasol: Signed a 3 year, $9.72 million contract in July 2008. Contract contains performance incentives currently listed as "likely," thereby boosting its total value to $10 million.

Rudy Gay: Drafted 8th overall in 2006. Signed to rookie salary scale contract for that year.

Ronnie Brewer: Drafted 14th overall in 2006. Signed to rookie salary scale contract for that year.

Jerry Stackhouse: Re-signed to a 3 year, $21 million contract in July 2007. Contract contains performance bonuses currently listed as "unlikely". Only $2 million of the final year guaranteed, but that increases to $3,625,000 if Stackhouse is not waived before August 10th 2009, and the contract is uniquely fully guaranteed if the Mavs (or whichever team he is on) wins the NBA title in either 2008 or 2009. Waived in July 2009.

Hamed Haddadi: Signed a three year $4.8 million contract in August 2008 with an unnecessarily weird pay structure.

Darrell Arthur: Drafted 27th overall in 2008. Signed to rookie salary scale contract for that year.

DeMarre Carroll: Drafted 27th overall in 2009. Signed to rookie salary scale contract for that year.

Marcus Williams: Signed a one year minimum salary contract in August 2009. Williams is actually being paid $855,189, the minimum salary for a three year veteran, but as his minimum salary contract is only for one year and he has more than two years of experience, the team is only billed an amount equal to the minimum salary of a two year vet. The league pays the rest. Contract is $500,000 guaranteed, but becomes a further $23,679 guaranteed after each of 15 specific dates in which Williams' total body weight is equal to or less than 207 pounds, and his body fat is at or below 10%. True story.

Sam Young: Signed a three year, $2,658,000 contract in July 2009. The contract doesn't follow exact maximum raises, but is kind of a rounded-up version.

Jamaal Tinsley: Signed for the remainder of the season in December 2009.

Lester Hudson: Signed a two year minimum salary contract in September 2009. First year $150,000 guaranteed. Second year fully unguaranteed, but becomes fully guaranteed if Hudson is not waived on or before July 15h 2010, or 48 hours after the team's last summer league game (whichever comes first).

Allen Iverson: Signed a one year contract for as much caproom as Memphis had left in September 2009. Contract contains performance incentives currently listed as "unlikely." Bought out in November, and paid for time served only.

Trey Gilder: Signed a one year minimum salary contract in August 2009. $25,000 guaranteed. Waived in November.
