I could see a lot of the big money teams actually wanting to see something like that implemented.
They already did away with the 50/50 revenue split guarantee in the new CBA extension, albeit with the league’s intention of going back to that in the next CBA. The league has also already agreed in the past to things like compliance buyouts which put salaries over their 50/50 split in the past so I don’t think they’re stuck on the 50/50 split in situations where it’s to their benefit to deviate from it.
On Hoffman, this is a steal for St. Louis
