Was bored did some search. Sooo got a little quiz now no cheating, just your best guess - -NO CHEATING lol - -in your opinion/guess ok - - out of our former players that's now playing in the NBA who do you think is pulling down the biggest annual paycheck?

Sure in the hell wasn't who I thought it was. - -I'm trusting you guys - -NO CHEATING. - -I'll get back in awhile and let you know -you might be surprised. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Not sure what Embiid and Wiggins' raises got them per year, or how those are broken down, so without looking I am going to guess Drew Gooden.

@jayballer54 Markieff?

Is this total income or just NBA pay?

If it's the worth of their current contract only, Wiggins and Embiid are pulling in 148 million each. I assume the question is trickier than that though...

I don't think Wiggins and Embid get the big money till next season

If we are talking about this season, Markieff at $8M is probably the highest paid followed by Wiggins, Aldrich and Arthur who are all at around $7.5M. If you look at future pay, Wiggins and Embiid are pretty much at the top with multi year contracts maxed out at around $148M. BTW, Gooden did not play last season and is for all practical purposes retired, much like Hinrich.

@jayballer54 Tarik Black?

No not him.

Well for what I was looking at it just said 2017-2018 salaries - - it WAS Markeiff at 8,000,000 this year. -- I was kind of surprised to see That Cole and Arthur were next Arthur is at 7,464,912 - -then Cole has 7,300,000 crazy neither one of them is hardly seeing the floor anymore. lol

But you wouldn't hear me complaining I'd sit the bench for a year and collect that be happy as punch lol. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer54

I believe Wiggins is just over $7.5M and just ahead of Arthur and Aldrich.

@JayHawkFanToo Ya Wiggins is 7, 574, 323 - - -Then Arthur at 7, 464,912. - - -Cole really catches me by surprise to be paying him that kind of money for no more then the minutes he plays - -kind of caught me offguard. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
