The G League has agreed to terms on the league’s first-ever Collective Bargaining Agreement with the Next Gen Basketball Players Union (NGBPU), reports ESPN’s Tim Bontemps (Twitter link).
According to Bontemps, the new agreements includes player salary increases, as well as pay bumps for Exhibit 10 recipients who come to the G League after being signed and waived by NBA teams.
To this point, an Exhibit 10 deal has allowed a player to receive a bonus payment, which this season was capped at $85,300.
Bontemps goes on to report (via Twitter) that the CBA will allow more players to join G League teams following being waived from an Exhibit 1o deal — that could mean an increase in the number of affiliate players (currently capped at four per team).
He also writes that the CBA would allow for fewer restrictions when it comes to player movement.
