After the trial ended, Mo Lei went straight to Lingxuan's office.
Morey represented the Rockets and expressed his intention to sign with him, telling Lingxuan not to go to other teams.
Then, the Rockets would discuss the contract with him and Pelinka in the afternoon and ask Lingxuan to come back in the afternoon!
..........
Lingxuan returned to the hotel.
Pelinka called.
" Buddy, you're awesome!!!"
"I heard about your performance in the trial, OMG! Why didn't you tell me that you were sick during the pre-draft tryout?”
"Haha, isn't it better to speak with strength? Pelinka!"
Lingxuan complained in his heart,'I don't even know that I'm sick.'
"Yes, buddy, you're too awesome. I heard that your three-pointer hit the target! It's too amazing, oh yeah!"
"It's so disgusting that you're shouting 'oh yay'. If you were a sexy beauty, I'd be a little happier!”Lingxuan joked.
His happiness level had to be increased by having sex with girls. In this life, he was a bachelor. Lingxuan felt that he was too miserable.
"Haha, if we sign the contract, we'll get US dollars and sexy beauties. This time, we want a big contract, a long-term contract!”
"No, Pelinka, sign a one-year contract. I want to fight for a bigger contract this season. Although they value me now, they can't give me a big contract. Howard and Harden, the two top salaries, have left them with no room.”
In his previous life, Lingxuan had studied the NBA's salary rules.
Moreover, with Morey's character, no matter how awesome the trial was, he couldn't give too high a price.
Lingxuan was a man who wanted to target a billion-yuan contract!
He couldn't stand the low salary for many years.
"Okay, you're the boss. I'll listen to you. I'm flying over from Los Angeles now! Let's go talk to them in the afternoon!”
After learning about Lingxuan's talent, Pelinka became much more active!
Although Pelinka felt that Lingxuan was overconfident, he did not care about the commission!
Lingxuan was gambling, and so was he!
“OK！”
Afternoon!
Pelinka and Lingxuan went to the office to discuss the contract with Mo Lei.
The current Rocket salary space had already exceeded the salary cap, but it had not reached the trigger point of the luxury tax.
Pelinka and Lingxuan could not accept a basic salary contract. Ling Xuan felt that it was a waste to use Higgins 'talent to sign a basic salary contract.
Mo Lei also knew that Lingxuan's value was not limited to this price, so he didn't bid.
Because Ling Xuan, the rookie who was not selected, was a free agent, the situation was similar to the second round. The contract signed with the team was not a rookie-level contract. There were no special regulations on the duration, nature of the contract, and the amount of money.
The only difference between a draft pick and a second-round pick was that the signing rights were not in the hands of one team.
In the end, Lingxuan and Mo Lei reached an agreement.
The Rockets will sign Ling Xuan with a one-year middle-class exception.
The middle-class clause was the average salary of the entire league, which was about 4.2 million dollars this year.
The Rockets could only use this clause to sign one player, and the full amount had to be used, regardless of the player's quality.
Lingxuan solemnly signed his name on the two copies of the contract!!!
When he was signing the contract, the system gave a "ding".
However, Lingxuan was too excited to notice!
At this moment, Lingxuan was very excited.
This was his first professional contract. His dream of entering the NBA in his previous life and this life had finally come true.
Lingxuan and Pelinka also gave up on negotiating for a salary increase for this middle-class.
Even if he did, it wouldn't be much. The Rockets couldn't provide any bigger ones. Lingxuan also needed to compete to prove himself. He needed the Rockets as a platform.
It would be too troublesome if he went to other teams for trial training.
Pelinka had also received many high-paying invitations from overseas teams. Of course, some of them were from the Chinese CBA, but Ling Xuan did not want to go. He only wanted to be in the NBA.
Right now, what Lingxuan needed the most was NBA game time. Only then could he complete his mission and get a chance.
Then, he would increase his ability. His ability would increase.
A big contract was naturally formed.
Higgins was the guy who had a contract worth 100 million yuan. Lingxuan naturally did not want to be worse than him!
4.2 million dollars a year, fully guaranteed. The state tax rate in Texas was in the middle of the US. According to US law, such an income level had to pay nearly half of the personal income tax. In addition, Lingxuan had to give 10% of his annual income to the NBA.
Lingxuan felt that it was a scam.
Then he had to divide it by 82 games and multiply it by the number of games the Rockets played (excluding the suspension), and he got 1.6 million dollars.
In the beginning, Lingxuan's annual salary of 4.2 million was still considered generous…
However, he still felt that he was poor.
He only had ten thousand dollars in his pocket.
According to the NBA's rules, the league paid salaries on the 1st and 15th of each month.
