Hint: It's not. It's not 10% then 6% thereafter due to that exact clause. Of HRR doesn't recover after the 21/22 season, escrow will make up the difference.

Escrow is "capped" for the next two seasons, but it's really not as the balance is made up in future seasons.

Players agreed to a 10-per cent deferral for the upcoming year. Escrow caps are: 20 per cent for 2020-21; 14-18 per cent (although everyone assumes it will be 18) in 2021-22; 10 per cent in 2022-23; and six per cent for the remaining three seasons. (A one-year extension will be tacked on the end of the CBA if the players owe the league between $125-$250 million after 2024-25; the cap on that would be nine per cent.)
