One of the more surprising free agent moves this offseason was the Spurs signing big man Zach Collins to a three-year, $22 million contract.
Some fans were skeptical of the deal, especially since Collins has only played in 11 games over the past two seasons due to multiple ankle injuries. Fortunately, his salary structure reveals that the contract is a lot less risky than it initially seemed due to the large portion of non-guaranteed money.
Collins will be paid a fully guaranteed $7 million salary in his first season before potentially making $7.35 million in year 2 and $7.
