The crazy thing about the top NBA players to me is that only a small % of their actual take-home income comes from NBA salary...but they make all of their decisions on being a "max player" and squeezing as much juice out of their NBA contract when it is in reality the side-hustle for a lot of these guys like LeBron and Steph... but back to the Lydon's and Malachi's...they actually get to keep a lot less than whatever they are advertised as getting...3.5 mil over several seasons is still amazing, of course...but if you broke it down to less than half...say 1.5 m over 3 years...thats 500k/year for a 3 year career...still awesome...but would have to be careful managing that to last a lifetime, imo...I personally could retire on that much...but not everyone could.
