You don't really need an agent when you're getting a supermax. But a good agent might be useful for marketing deals. Thats how max NBA guys should structure their contracts with agents.

if they give him anything other than a supermax, time to get an agent. he can always get one after he gets his deal. no need to share hard earned money with scummy agents.

I would guess his agent refused to give him a fee break as is customary for superstars, despite knowing he was going to get the supermax

Realtors, agents, etc are grifters/losers that need real jobs.
Warned: Baiting.

Why do talented basketball players need agents? Is sga the first one to represent himself?

I'm surprised LeBron hasn't tried to recruit him to Klutch.

Why give the agent a commission when the only negotiation starts and ends with: "Give me ALL the money"

All that's going to happen is people are going to start using Lawyers, who will eventually start charging 4-10% and opening agency firms and we will be right back where we started.
**Just like when everyone was going to get rid of cable/TV networks and commercials...

I think there is some work involved but the % is way too high. Same goes for tipping. Nothing wrong with tipping but the % keeps rising

and the base price keeps rising 5 times as fast.

Masai is going to pull out all the stops to get Shai home.
Here's his comprehensive plan:
1. Get Raptors social media to post behind the scenes draft night attempt to try and get him.
2. That's it.
Following the Giannis free agency playbook.
In all seriousness Shai is not leaving the best managed organization in the league for whatever it is the Raptors are doing. When you're an MVP, all-time great caliber player you can't waste your time with unserious franchises.

Haha. I kind of hate them too, but us the people, let it happen. I’m selling my first house in spring and doing it without a realtor.
