Shai Gilgeous-Alexander of the Oklahoma City Thunder<\/a> is arguably the league\u2019s best star, and he\u2019s certainly getting paid like he is.<\/p>\n

He just signed a new deal with his Thunder, and it\u2019s going to reward him with eye-popping numbers.<\/p>\n

According to SpoTrac, via Legion Hoops, new salary cap rules mean that Gilgeous-Alexander will be making more money per year than the entire San Antonio Spurs roster in 2013-14.<\/p>\n

Gilgeous-Alexander is set to earn $68.1 million per year, meaning that he will be the highest-paid player in NBA history.<\/p>\n

It also means that he is bringing in more than the whole 2013-14 Spurs roster.<\/p>\n

Yes, the combination of Tim Duncan, Manu Ginobili, Tony Parker, and Kawhi Leonard didn\u2019t make as much collectively as Gilgeous-Alexander will make in a single season.<\/p>\n

That Spurs team is considered one of the greatest of all time, which makes this fact even more astounding.<\/p>\n

This shows just how much the NBA has changed, and how much it\u2019ll keep changing.<\/p>\n

Gilgeous-Alexander might be bringing in boatloads of money now, but the value of these contracts will only expand more and more in the seasons ahead.<\/p>\n

$68 million in a single year is nothing compared to what will be offered ten years down the road.<\/p>\n

Is Gilgeous-Alexander worth it?<\/p>\n

For the Thunder, the answer is a clear and resounding \u201cabsolutely.\u201d<\/p>\n

He is their biggest and best star and a major reason why they are now champions.<\/p>\n

The Thunder would have been happy to pay even more to keep him around, because they want him to stay in OKC for the rest of his career.<\/p>\n
