Reported Salaries Of Ingles And Jawai In Europe

Unfortunately, the salary gap between high level Europe leagues and the NBL is such that even if Ingles only received 10% of his european money, he would still be earning as much as what he would in the NBL.

I think its clear Ogilvy came back to Australia because of necessity and not choice. He must not have been able to find a deal anywhere else.

"I hate to break it to you guys, but Euroleague and FIBA have STRICT salary rules.
No team is even allowed in the league at all if they don't play players in full.
FIBA won't even allow a team to even SIGN any players if they are not paying players.
Stop believing every propaganda nonsense that US media churns out."

Cool Story Bro, try telling Kirk Penney who is currently chasing owed wages from Spanish Team Baloncesto Fuenlabrada whom he played a season with before moving to Turkey.

the NBA actually pay ALL their players where as in Europe a ton of "Import" players are chasing Team Owners and Managers for Money that is owed.
So having a Contract worth X amount of dollars doesn't mean squat if they don't actually pay you.

@Kobe24 - Assuming that Don is correct in how European contracts are reported, I thought it was an interesting topic and might serve to dispel the rampant 'NBA watch' of every Australian playing overseas.
