Jaylen Clark reveals every NBA player gets the SAME licensing check... and his was $385,000. 😳 Licensing check: money from NBA 2K, jersey sales, and trading cards. "Instead of LeBron James making $30 million. All the players came together and said we're going to include everybody." "Everybody gets an... equal share, no matter if you're the top dog on the team or the bottom dog."show more

The best union in the world

Random nba benchwarmer when that 385k hits at the end of the year

We all came together and decided LeBron should get $385,000 instead of $30,000,000

People would call this socialism and bitch.

Whoever negotiated this cooked !! Should get his accolades everytime

Makes you wonder why some of them end up being broke and caught in some gambling scandal

This is why the NBA has the strongest players union in sports. $385k just for existing as an NBA player on top of your salary is actually insane.

Some ex NBA player going to come out and try convince the masses that $385,000 is actually more like $3,850 because they have to buy a new Bentley Continental GT every year.

that equal split is insanely wholesome with the fact that some players sell way way more in contrast to other nba players

LeBron giving up millions just so the 15th man eats too... that's gonna make people mad

NBA union really winning for everyone

This is actually such a good system. The fact that even role players get a solid cut is huge for the union

Real unity in the bag. NBA players eating together > eating alone. Respect! 🏀💰

So I can be lazy and get same share

Ahh communism. That has never backfired in world history. 🤣🤣🤣

Imagine being the last guy off the bench and waking up to a $385K check. I'd be the loudest teammate in practice. 😂

The game is to be sold not told! These young kats tell everything!

That’s actually a crazy example of players looking out for each other 😳🔥 A superstar could make way more individually, but the system gives every player a piece of the pie. NBA brotherhood showing up off the court too. 💯

Respect to the players for agreeing that everyone should benefit, not just the biggest stars.

I absolutely love this level of financial transparency from Jaylen Clark. It’s wild to realize that every time someone buys NBA 2K or purchases a random jersey, they are directly contributing a split to the guys at the end of the bench too. Truly amazing system

A mere pittance…but nice they all went splitsies.

He gone be out the league in 2 years cause of this shit smh

THIS IS ALSO WHY U WILL NEVER SEE ANY NBA PLAYERS CRITICIZING 2K💯

They are stacking it real good there

If licensing money really is split equally regardless of star power, does that create tension within locker rooms — do max players resent subsidizing bench guys, or is that equal-share model actually part of why the union has stayed unified on issues like this compared to other leagues?"

Why is the NBA practicing socialism??? Adam Silver ruined the sport i love

So $385,000 is why we can’t have Rasheed Wallace, Reggie miller and Charles Barkley in the game ? That’s the greed they speak about in the bible

That's wild how the players pushed for equal shares. $385k for everyone is huge. Respect to the union for that.

Massive Win for the NBPA. They turned what could've been superstar-only money into something every player benefits from. An extra $385K on top of salary Big respect to the players for choosing an equal split instead of letting only the biggest stars cash in.

How do you qualify for the check? Appear on a roster at any time during the pay period? Put me in coach I’ll keep that bench toasty for the boys

That’s actually one of the strongest union moves in sports. The biggest stars gave up a larger slice so every player benefited.

The NBA Union is retarded. Star players who put in the actual heavy lifting are getting fucked over. Only getting crumbs from the millions made directly off of their name.

Oh hey, look, it's Socialism but for Millionaires! Isn't life fair?
