I wish him luck. Good players can actually make more money overseas than they would have playing in the NBA

The absolute worst you can make in the NBA now is $815,615. That's for a player with zero years of experience.

It'll be interesting to see how Irvin's contract compares to that. After his summer league numbers, there was no way he was getting a NBA contract. Hopefully he's getting somewhere in the ballpark of the NBA minimum. I know that he is in Italy's highest-level pro league, so the numbers should be solid.

Having played overseas i can tell ya the contracts arent like the nba , but its still a good paycheck for sure . And this was 15 years ago . Wish him the best , he got a bad shake from alot of fans when all he did was bust his ass for us .
