I’m pretty sure they will also get housing and insurance. Currently G-league players get around $71;000 plus housing and insurance. But I also think it’s only for 5 months. I know the salary is prorated by games. So they give everyone a bedroom in an apartment or house. The kids (because that’s what they will be coming out of high school) get about $5,000 a week - $3500 after taxes. Most will want to buy a new car. That will take a chunk out of their cash. But they can hoop all day and night and not have to go to class. There will be takers.

The last time I checked a year or 2 ago, I thought that the G League max salary was around $40,000 per year plus meals and housing. Can't remember about insurance.
The average salary might be around $30-35k maybe I thought.
