Here’s what every first-round pick in the 2020 NBA Draft will make next season
First-round draft selections in the NBA Draft are assigned a “scale” value depending on what pick they’re selected with. The first pick has the highest assigned value, the second pick has the second-highest assigned value, and so on.
Below is the first-year salary scale value for each first-round selection in the 2020 NBA Draft (based on the 2020-21 rookie scale chart provided by RealGM). Players can sign for as little as 80 percent or as much as 120 percent of the scale value of where they were selected. Rookie contracts last for four years, the last two being team-option years.
The NBA Players Association agreed to a modified collective-bargaining agreement earlier this month that could impact player salaries for the next two seasons.
