When Jaylen Brown’s contract details landed, they came with a bit of popping sound. Prepare to have your brain pop and break a few more times this decade. We are only at the beginning of the NBA’s great gold rush. ✍️ MikeVorkunov:

Let’s start with the salary cap, which is a reflection of the league’s revenues. It has more than doubled in a decade. It was $63.065 million in 2014-15, and it will be $136.021 million this season. That means the top salaries have grown accordingly. The very top contract any player can sign in any given season is worth 35 percent of the cap in the first year of that deal, with 8 percent raises thereafter. If the cap goes up by 10 percent for the 2024-25 contract, Brown will make $52.
The new CBA stipulates a maximum 10 percent jump in the salary cap each season. That’s to avoid the kind of gigantic cap spike the NBA saw in 2016. That happened because the league had a new media rights deal kick in that year and didn’t smooth in the big influx of new revenue. This time around, the NBA and the NBPA wanted to avoid that kind of hiccup.
Let’s assume the cap goes up by 10 percent every season from here until the end of the current CBA, which runs through the end of the 2029-30 season. Here is what the cap would be projected to be in each of those seasons and what the first year’s salary of a new supermax contract would be:
