I've seen a lot of Mirotic playing on the Bulls. I don't think salary is what is keeping him from the NBA more like defense and shot selection.

[@jamesz9635]

nah he's much better now than he was in Chicago. he was very much sought after by NBA teams, he just wanted to go back to Europe

[@razatiger22]

@@jamesz9635 Well obviously he looks better against lessor competition. He could not guard anyone in the NBA so he was hard to play.

The issue here is that you "think", why would you do that to us ? The man refused contracts in the NBA to go back to Euroleague.

[@dirtydiana8542]

You guys need to update this. Facundo Campazzo earns 300K per month which is 3.6 million a year. So he is second on this list, just behind Mirotić. Also, Vildoza earns huge money. Zvezda has roster almost in range of Barcelona Real and Efes. Their budget is just a little bit less than budgets of the mentioned teams.

[@jaidamann8365]

They are getting paid a lot more than playing for the G-League but pass on an opportunity to make tens of millions of dollars a season in the NBA. Getting on an NBA roster from G-League is no guarantee though and they get to stay close to home in the Euro leagues. A bird in the hand is worth 2 in the bush. If they a aren't guaranteed an NBA roster spot they might be better off staying in Euroleagues.

[@AleksanteriR]

There's no way these figures aren't higher than what's being reported, I don't buy for one second that players just want to play in Europe solely because it's close to home.

[@ortforshort7652]

What level of NBA player are these guys comparable to? With the big TV contracts, there are a lot of guys in the NBA right now who you would normally never pay 15-20 million a year for, but teams need to fill out their starting rotations with somebody decent. Are these fifteen guys at the mid range starter level? If so, then it is a mystery why they would settle for earning a fraction of what they could earn in the NBA. Does the NBA have to pay compensation to the Euro league to sign these players? Could that be a sticking point in bringing these guys over? Does the NBA see these guys as potential mid range starters? If not, that would explain it - they're not offering. If so, again, a mystery.
