NBA money is just different now

Agreed. They should include % of some cap/threshold because that's what matters from a roster construction perspective ($ left for other players) and it's more helpful for comparisons across time. That "up to $269 million" probably includes $50 million on the premise he makes all-NBA this year. That's the case with Scottie Barnes' new deal (225 or 275 mil) and they were in the same draft class
