Not sure about the rules around this but with Klay’s contract negotiations. . . Hypothetically he signs a team friendly contract. Why couldn’t the Lacobs have a handshake agreement, they’ll employ him in some sort of ambassadorial/marketing job in one of their other companies once he retires and just give him millions?
Why can’t every team just give their players lesser contracts and promise other forms of payments that don’t count towards the salary cap? Are they stupid?
