Tyler Herro’s contract incentives: • $2.5M if he plays at least 75 games. • $1.5M if he wins DPOY. • $1M if he wins MVP. • $1M if he’s first or second team All-NBA. • 500K if he’s third team All-NBA. BUT “unlikely bonuses” count towards tax aprons under new CBA rules.

I think teams 100% are going to stop doing these “unlikely bonuses” with the new cap rules and aprons, but I wonder if that means players will then ask for that money guaranteed instead?
Either way, unlikely bonuses are pretty common in the league, and a lot of them signed before this new cba, and are actively making things way more complicated in trades and cap management
That’s 6.5M he won’t see
I don’t want this to come off wrong.
But why does he look like Yuta Watanabe in that photo….
Pretty unfortunate this contract was given before cba and we got penalized for it
Getting paid more for playing 75 games rather than winning MVP is so funny to me lol
Yeah, none of those are happening. Sucks it counts towards the tax apron.

They should give him 20 million if he wins DPOY lol
$500k if he gets a masters degree
$2 if he leads the league in receiving yards
$5 million if he becomes president of the untied states
His agent may as well have negotiated these in there lmao
That cba screwed the heat over at the wrong time.
Wait watch me I‘m willing to add 100mio. If he ends up winning DPOY.
No I‘m not. I‘m a poor ass MF. Point is: you could promise Tyler the moon, and there is still no way he even makes it to the top10 shortlist for DPOY
So we wasting $4m in his ass for nothing?
What was the idea behind it
To be funny? I get they didn’t see it counting against the apron, but why was it done lmao
New CBA rules shouldn’t affect contracts signed by old rules. Dumb
Also the DPOY one is always hilarious
What a perfect picture to sum it up
1.5M for DPOY, wowsers. I guess that’s one way encourage someone to setup up their defense.
The heat do this with most players .Ai think Duncan has some of these oncent8ves in his contract too along with Jimmy and bam.Kelly olynk ,Whiteside and jj and dion had some of these too so it’s not unique to Tyler.lol.
What more likely to happen first Tyler Herro DPOY or the apocalypse ?
I’ll eat 6 whole shoes if Herro plays at least 75 games in a season in his entire career in the NBA. Dude is hurt. A headache for like 6 games? Cmon bro.
If this is him playing defense while incentivized I don’t even know what to say
I find it stupid that contracts signed before the new CBA are affected by it.
It just made no sense to introduce that CBA so short-term, thank you CJ
