The biggest surprise of the 2021 NBA Draft was the selection of former Alabama Basketball player, Josh Primo. Primo was a near-lock to de drafted. Almost every Mock Draft had Primo being chosen in the mid to late 20s of the first round. Instead, the youngest player in the Draft had his name called by the San Antonio Spurs as the No. 12 selection.
Based on the NBA Rookie scale, Primo’s contract could reach $15M on four years of compensation, with a guarantee of close to $7M.
