I’ve built a tool that lets you easily compare contract values across years. With NBA discourse more focused on transactions than ever, this will help you be a more informed fan. I remember podcasts trashing Julius Randle’s contract after the 2021-2022 season. He was set to make $26.1M the next year—about $14M in 2015-2016 terms, when Roy Hibbert was getting a subsidized Weight Watchers membership from the Pacers.

The calculator won’t account for real-world inflation. If you want to know how many more Robux Joel Embiid can buy now versus in 2014, ChatGPT is there for you. For now, the tool focuses on cap-relative comparisons, and I’ll be posting lighthearted content exploring NBA salary minutiae every week.

In the future, I hope to add a tool that lets you input a player’s contract in a given year and get back the 2–3 closest contracts as a % of the cap in another year. That’ll take more data and dev work, but I’m excited to dig in.
