is the same reading in dollars — points × the league's rate − salary — shown signed on each row. Match rate 68.3% — the share of contracts whose player could be matched to a season line. Unmatched deals are new signings with no S3 stats, and carry no value figure rather than a guessed one.
05 / Paid vs produced
WHAT THE MONEY BOUGHT, IN FULL
Points price a scorer. Every figure here is built on Game Score instead — one published formula over the whole box score — so a playmaker or a defender is priced for what they actually did.
Paid against produced
Every S4 contract whose season line matched, one mark each, coloured by club. The vertical line is the median salary of these 121 deals ($12.0M); the horizontal one is the 50th . Up and to the left is production bought cheap; down and to the right is a payroll with nothing to show for it.
- $26K
- $41K
Hover any mark for the player, the salary and the percentile. Percentiles come from the qualified population (10+ games); a contract with no matched season line is not plotted, because there is no production to place on the axis.

The line explains 3.1% of the variation in wins, so it is almost flat — across the whole league the fitted total moves only 0.1 wins. Read the residuals that way: most of each one is simply how far the team sits from .500, not proof the money was spent well or badly.

Draft-class spend
What each draft class costs on S4 contracts today. The price of a class is not its talent — it is how many of its players have reached their second and third deals. The mean shows where the money goes; the median is the class's actual going rate, and it is the one every "against the class" figure below is read from.
| Class | Players | Payroll | Average | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| S1 | 48 | $843.9M | $17.6M | $15.0M | 18,661 | $45K |
| S2 | 33 | $423.0M | $12.8M | $12.0M | 11,645 | $35K |
| S3 | 50 | $543.9M | $10.9M | $12.0M | 12,001 | $41K |

| Undrafted | 2 | $22.0M | $11.0M | $11.0M | 225 | $80K |
Payroll against wins
Every team, plotted where its money and its record actually meet. The vertical line is the inferred $165.0M cap; the horizontal one is 15- 30 wins. Up and to the left is a cheap roster winning anyway; down and to the right is money that bought nothing.

Value is the same league-relative figure used above, and blank where a player has no matched season line — a decision on a player with no production on record is shown with its money and no verdict.
40 deals carry no money past S4. 12 have no option at all; the other 28 are option years the export books no salary for, and are shown as “not listed” rather than as a zero. Every contract appears here exactly once.

THE LEDGER, IN FACTS
35 claims, one for every team, each computed from the contracts — none written by hand
CONTRACT
01
$2.30B
The league has $2.30B on the books for next season, across 183 contracts.
That is $12.6M a player and $143.9M a team. The median deal is $12.0M, so the average is dragged up by a short list of maximum contracts rather than describing a typical player.
CONTRACT
02
$165.0M
Every team's cap sheet implies the same salary cap: $165.0M.
The tax line falls $50.0M above it, at $215.0M. 3 teams are over the cap and 0 are into the tax. DAL is the one club whose own figures disagree with that line.
CONTRACT
03
$55.0M
Chester Chess is the highest-paid player in the league at $55.0M.
That single season costs HOU more than 2.4% of the entire league's payroll.
CONTRACT
04
$2.91B
Another $2.91B is already committed beyond this season.
S5 and S6 salaries together are 1.3× this season's payroll — 55.9% of all money on the books lands after this year.
CONTRACT
05
0.18
Payroll and wins barely move together this season (r = 0.18).
A correlation of 0.18 is close to noise: the richest roster and the best record are not the same club. Money buys a floor, not a ladder.
CONTRACT
06
6.3×
Jason Silver is the best value in the league: 6.3× the return the money would buy anywhere else.
A point cost $41K on average; Jason Silver produced theirs for $7K, while Jeremiah Holloway (OAK) cost $333K a point. Same market, very different prices.
CONTRACT
07
$398.0M
$398.0M comes off the books this summer, across 40 deals.
That is 17.3% of the league's payroll turning into cap room in one off-season — the reason a quiet roster can become a player in free agency overnight.
CONTRACT
08
122
122 contracts carry a team option, against just 5 player options.
Add 4 mutual options and 6 no-trade or no-movement clauses, and the picture is a league where the front office, not the player, holds the leverage on almost every extra year.
CONTRACT
09
1.6×
TBS spends 1.6× what MIN does — yet the league is remarkably flat.
$168.4M against $103.0M, a $65.4M gap. The payroll Gini is 0.080: on a scale where 0 is every team identical and 1 is one team holding everything, this is a hard-capped league almost by construction.
CONTRACT
10
61
61 players are headed to unrestricted free agency, 16 of them PFs.
On top of the 28 currently unsigned, 25.0% of everyone on a roster is out of contract. That is the summer's supply; the $398.0M coming off the books is the demand.
CONTRACT
11
$843.9M
The S1 draft class is the most expensive in the league at $843.9M.
Its 48 players average $17.6M each, against $11.0M for the Undrafted class — the price of a class rises as its players reach their second and third deals.
CONTRACT
12
$44K
PF is the dearest position to buy a point from, at $44K each.
PG is the cheapest at $40K a point. PFs take 21.1% of the league payroll and PGs 17.4%, and the two rates are measured over 36 and 33 deals respectively — the cost per point covers only the players whose season line matched, so the thinner side of that pair is the softer number.
CONTRACT
13
25.5
TOR got the most basketball per dollar of cap: 25.5 wins for every full cap spent.
They spent $161.5M, 97.9% of the $165.0M cap, to win 25. DCS spent $160.0M, 97.0%, to win 0 — 0.0 per cap. Dividing by the cap first is what makes the two comparable: it is the same idea as dollars per win with the season's price level taken out.
CONTRACT
14
7.3
Priced on the whole game, Jason Silver is the best deal in the league: 7.3× the return the money buys anywhere else.
A point cost the league $41K; a Game Score — rebounds, assists, steals and blocks as well as points — cost $26K. Jason Silver produced 552.0 Game Score against a $2.0M salary, and the worst deal on the same basis, Jeremiah Holloway, returns 0.1×.
CONTRACT
15
76.5%
$540.0M of the league's payroll is tied to players the stats export has no line for.
That is 23.5% of $2.30B — usually a new signing with no games in this season's file. Counted by deals the match rate is 68.3%, but counted in dollars 76.5% of the money can be priced, which is the honest ceiling on every value figure on this page.
CONTRACT
16
+9.0
TOR won 9.0 more games than its payroll predicts — the biggest overperformance in the league.
Fitting wins on payroll across all 16 teams explains just 3.1% of the variation, so the line is almost flat and DCS sits 15.9 wins below it. Most of each residual is simply how far a team is from .500: this is a description of the season, not evidence that any front office spent well.
CONTRACT
17
$23K
A minute cost OAK $23K — the cheapest basketball in the league.
SEA paid $46K for the same minute. DAL has the most money on the floor: 67.5% of its payroll goes to the five players who play the most. Dividing a payroll by the minutes it bought separates a roster paying for a rotation from one paying for depth.
CONTRACT
18
$15.0M
The S1 draft class has the highest going rate in the league at $15.0M a deal.
The median S4 contract is $9.3M. The class a player came from is the one date the export carries, so this is the closest thing on the site to an experience curve: older classes cost more because more of their players have reached a second or third deal.
CONTRACT
19
$890K
Jason Silver bought LVS a share of a win for $890K — the cheapest on the ledger.
LVS's wins are split across its roster by how much of its Game Score each player produced, so Jason Silver is credited with 2.2 of them on a $2.0M deal. Johnny Hancock costs $285.5M for the same share. It is an attribution of wins already won, not a claim that either player won a game alone.
CONTRACT
20
$30.0M
TBS pays Albert Legations $30.0M — 17.8% of its payroll.
A roster of 11 on $168.4M, over the salary cap. The spending is spread fairly evenly across the squad.
CONTRACT
21
$32.0M
NYE pays Lavation Johnson $32.0M — 19.1% of its payroll.
A roster of 10 on $167.9M, over the salary cap. The spending is spread fairly evenly across the squad.
CONTRACT
22
$83.8M
HOU pays $83.8M for every win — the most expensive results in the league.
$167.5M bought just 2 wins, a cost per win that dwarfs the $9.6M the average team spends.
CONTRACT
23
$161.5M
TOR bought the best record in the league: 25-5 on $161.5M.
$6.5M per win and the 4th-richest roster in the league — proof that the top of the table is not simply the top of the ledger.
CONTRACT
24
$160.0M
DCS spent $160.0M to go 0-30.
That is $13.3M a player for a season without a win — every dollar bought the worst record in the league.
CONTRACT
25
$40.0M
DAL pays Quincy Washington $40.0M — 25.5% of its payroll.
A roster of 10 on $157.0M, comfortably under the cap. The spending is spread fairly evenly across the squad.
CONTRACT
26
$30.0M
DET pays Ron Leaf $30.0M — 19.5% of its payroll.
A roster of 10 on $154.0M, comfortably under the cap. The spending is spread fairly evenly across the squad.
CONTRACT
27
$40.0M
CHI pays Zay Russell $40.0M — 26.3% of its payroll.
A roster of 11 on $152.0M, comfortably under the cap. The spending is spread fairly evenly across the squad.
CONTRACT
28
50.0%
Only 50.0% of SEA's $144.0M payroll can be matched to a season line.
$72.0M is paid to players the stats export has no production for — usually new signings. No value figure can be computed for those deals, so the roster's efficiency is only partly knowable.
CONTRACT
29
$40.0M
LVS pays Timothy Noah $40.0M — 28.1% of its payroll.
A roster of 10 on $142.4M, comfortably under the cap. The spending is spread fairly evenly across the squad.
CONTRACT
30
$20.0M
PIT pays Yaroslav Campbell $20.0M — 14.1% of its payroll.
A roster of 13 on $142.0M, comfortably under the cap. The spending is spread fairly evenly across the squad.
CONTRACT
31
$15.0M
LAR pays Doc Holliday $15.0M — 11.6% of its payroll.
A roster of 12 on $129.0M, comfortably under the cap. The spending is spread fairly evenly across the squad.
CONTRACT
32
10
VBN holds 10 team options — the most leverage in the league.
On 14 contracts, 71.4% carry a club-controlled extra year, so VBN can keep this roster together on its own terms.
CONTRACT
33
$15.0M
OAK pays Jay Wilson $15.0M — 13.3% of its payroll.
A roster of 12 on $113.0M, comfortably under the cap. The spending is spread fairly evenly across the squad.
CONTRACT
34
$15.0M
VAN pays Anthony Campbell $15.0M — 13.3% of its payroll.
A roster of 10 on $112.4M, comfortably under the cap. The spending is spread fairly evenly across the squad.
CONTRACT
35
$62.0M
MIN has more cap room than anyone: $62.0M to spend.
Its $103.0M payroll is the 16th-largest in the league, leaving the front office the most room of any club to add to a 14-16 roster.
