On July 12, Beijing time, ESPN salary expert Bobby Marks mentioned the most cost-effective signings, including the Spurs' one-year, $10.5 million signing of Chris Paul. Marks revealed that Paul's contract includes eight bonus setups.

Paul could have easily joined a competitive team and continued to chase the first championship of his NBA career. But Paul, who left the Warriors, opted to sign a one-year, $10.5 million contract with the Spurs, playing for Hall of Fame coach Greg Popovich and teaming up with champion Victor Wembanyama. We can think of Paul as an on-field extension of Popovich's coaching staff, with the 39-year-old also available to help on the pitch and in the locker room.

According to Second Spectrum's tracker, the Spurs ranked 24th in turnovers percentage, 27th in turnovers per game and 28th in pass turnover rate last season. Last season, Paul was second only to Tyus · Jones in assist-to-turnover ratio. His 715 aerial relay dunk assists are among the highest among active players.

It is reported that Paul's one-year contract includes eight bonuses. One of them, Marks revealed, is that Paul will receive $262,000 if the Spurs (or other teams they play for) win 32 or more games. In other words, if Paul is traded by the Spurs during the season, the contract reward system will apply to other teams as well.

The Spurs had a 22-60 record last season, which means that if Paul can help the Spurs win 10 more games in the new season, he will get the $262,000 pay cut. One of Paul's great features is that he can help new teams improve their winning percentage, and they can improve more or less.

The details are as follows-

Hornets: 22% win rate in the previous year, 46.3% after joining

Clippers: 39% win rate in the previous year, 60.6% after joining

Rockets: 67.1% win rate in the previous year, 79.3% after joining

Thunder: 59.8% win rate in the previous year, 61.1% after joining

Suns: 46.6% win rate in the previous year, 70.8% after joining

Warriors: 53.7% win rate in the previous year, 56.1% after joining
