Spencer Dinwiddie is going to get paid if the Los Angeles Lakers win a championship.

One dollar, to be exact.

That's because of a peculiar incentive in his contract, which the Lakers signed him to after he cleared waivers Saturday. Dinwiddie will be paid $1,554,654 for the 2023-24 season, and if Los Angeles goes all the way, he'll receive an extra buck.

So, what's going on here? As it turns out, he had a similar incentive in the past, with the Washington Wizards, and he and his agent included it in this contract as an inside joke.
