The NBA has decided to reverse course on Nene’s contract and modify his outgoing trade value. The deal was originally set to include up to $7.435 million in bonuses which were tied to games played and team wins. The bigger caveat for the Rockets was that the brilliantly constructed deal was going to allow Nene to have an outgoing salary of up to $10 million if traded, which would have allowed the team to pursue any player making up to $12.6 million. The latter part of the contract is what the league voided, as they’ve ruled that any trade involving Nene will only count as the $2.
