There is no 24th in the rivers and lakes

Recently, the salary website Spotrac counted the list of the top ten players in the NBA league salary in the 2024-2025 season, among the 10 players, 6 of them have annual salaries of more than 50 million, of which Curry ranks first in the league with 55.76 million cut-offs, but not every player in this list is worthy of his own value, and some have become recognized garbage contracts.

10. Downs (49.35 million)

Averages per game this season: 21.8 points, 8.3 rebounds and 3 assists

In 2022, Towns signed a 224 million salary cap with the Timberwolves, and this contract is officially effective from next season, but it is clear that Towns is one of the premium players on this list. In fact, since Towns entered the league in 2015, it is difficult to say that he has really played that season worthy of the super cap salary, let alone the top 10 in the league, and this year the Timberwolves fell to the Western Conference finals, averaging 19.6 points per game in the series, and he is also responsible for shooting 37.9% from the field.

9. Brown (49.35 million)

Averages this season: 23 points, 5.5 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.2 steals per game

Last year, Brown signed a record contract with the Green Army, and he also became the first Mr. 300 million, after getting the maximum salary, Brown's performance this season is also remarkable, especially the playoff team can reach the finals so easily and his performance is inextricably linked. Looking at Brown's contract now, it doesn't seem to be a particularly exaggerated statement, and the Green Army has a lot of hope of winning the championship this year, if they can really win the 18th championship in team history, then even if Brown's annual salary is at a premium, but the Celtics are completely acceptable.

8. Booker (49.35 million)

Averages per game this season: 27.1 points, 4.5 rebounds and 6.9 assists

Today's Booker is obviously one of the best scoring guards in the league, his performance over the years is obvious to all, although the Suns' results this year are very unsatisfactory, but this is not Booker's responsibility, the key to the team's loss is that the management team model is a bit quick to achieve quick success, and only know to find stars, but do not care about the rationality of the lineup. However, considering the Suns' current salary space, it will be difficult for them to return to the championship in the near future, but fortunately, Booker is young and has time to accompany the team to try.

7. Leonard (49.35 million)

Averages per game this season: 23.7 points, 6.1 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.6 steals

If you look at Leonard's on-court strength, then he obviously deserves his value, but the key is that he always can't play. The last time everyone saw a fully healthy Leonard in the playoffs was in 2021, and he played two games with injuries in this year's playoffs, and the effect can be said to be very bad, not only did he only score 24 points in these two games, but the team fell into a 1-2 deficit situation, and finally suffered a first-round tour.

And the Clippers are really unlucky, they only signed a three-year, $152.4 million contract with Leonard in January this year, and then immediately before the start of the playoffs, he was injured again. Now that Leonard is also 32 years old, with his physical condition, it is not impossible that injuries will become more frequent in the future.

6. Bill (50.2 million)

Averaged 18.2 points, 4.4 rebounds, 5 assists and 1 steal per game this season

Beal's contract is arguably the most premium on the roster, and the 30-year-old doesn't play at all like a Big Three with the Suns this season, playing only 53 games in the regular season and averaging less than 20 points per game. The playoffs team was swept in the first round, and Beal's performance of scoring only 9 points on 4-of-13 shooting is also quite exaggerated.

5. Durant (51.18 million)

This season, he averaged 27.1 points, 6.6 rebounds, 5 assists and 1.2 blocks per game

Although the Suns were swept and everyone was inseparable, Durant did his best, and the 35-year-old has given it his all this season. In the playoffs, Durant averaged 26.8 points, 6.5 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.5 blocks per game, shooting 55.2% from the field, but I have to admit that he has also declined a lot compared to his peak, which also makes people worry about his state in the next two seasons.

4. James (51.42 million)

Averaged 25.7 points, 7.3 rebounds, 8.3 assists and 1.3 steals per game this season

As the oldest active player in the league, James will be 40 next season, but for now, he is still in great shape, and he can give it his all when the Lakers need him to take over certain games. Although the Lakers have a mediocre season and were eliminated in the first round, it is a consolation to win the midseason championship in the middle of the season.

And for a star of James' level, he can not only help the team on the court, but his commercial value off the court also plays a vital role for the Lakers. Therefore, the Lakers have said early on that they are willing to offer James another contract with a maximum salary if he jumps out of his contract.

3. Embiid (51.42 million)

Averages per game this season: 34.7 points, 11 rebounds, 5.6 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.7 blocks

Embiid can be said to be one of the hottest stars in the league over the years, he has averaged 30+ per game for three consecutive seasons, and if it weren't for only 39 games in the regular season this season, there is a high probability that he will achieve the feat of three consecutive scoring titles, and even have a chance to defend the MVP.

Although Embiid's performance in the playoffs will always cause controversy, it is also compared to his own performance in the regular season, and he played well in the playoffs this year, averaging 33 points, 10.8 rebounds, 5.7 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.5 blocks per game.

2. Jokic (51.42 million)

Averages per game this season: 26.4 points, 12.4 rebounds, 9 assists and 1.4 steals

In the space of nearly four years, Jokic has won three MVPs, one FMVP, and it can be said that he is the undisputed number one person in the league right now. Jokic's performance on the court is now in everyone's eyes, and although he is only 29 years old, he has already surpassed many of the historical supergiants.

Although the Nuggets lost to the Timberwolves in the second round of this year's playoffs, Jokic has done his best, facing the Timberwolves' interior group, he can average 29 points, 11.4 rebounds, 7.9 assists, 1.6 steals and 1 block per game in the entire series. The Nuggets' failure to defend their title is more due to their poor cast of roles, and the second-leader Murray has not played as well as he should, but as long as Jokic remains, they still have hope to return to the championship in the new season.

1. Curry (55.76 million)

Averages per game this season: 26.4 points, 4.5 rebounds and 5.1 assists

As the only player on this list to earn more than $55 million a year next season, Curry undoubtedly deserves his value. Not to mention the 36-year-old Curry, who can still average close to 25+5+5 per game this season, and he was also selected for the best second team. The most important thing is that Curry is the greatest star in the history of the Warriors, and his commercial value is even more important to the current Warriors than how he plays.
