Just today, the Grizzlies player Parsons publicly announced his retirement, perhaps many fans are not familiar with this player, but Parsons' retirement has caused a sensation in the league. I have to say that with his excellent appearance, Parsons' career is unattainable by many NBA players, the main reason is that the total salary of his nine-year NBA career has reached $126 million, and most of this billion yuan salary is earned by lying down, and then take you to learn more about it.
Parsons was selected by the Houston Rockets with the 8th pick in the second round at the 2011 NBA Draft because of his rookie contract for only $3 years and $2.67 million. However, Parsons played well in the Rockets, In the first season after entering the league, he handed over a comprehensive statistic of 9.5 points, 4.8 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game, although the data is much lower than those of star players, but it is not easy to play such a result as a second-round show, in the rocket's three years, Parsons gilded himself, the rookie contract ended After the lone ranger threw an olive branch to him, signed him with a 2-year, $30 million contract, and it was this signing that made Parsons embark on the peak of his life.
The good times are not long, Parsons who just signed a big contract has not had time to show himself before he has encountered injuries, personal data has also declined significantly, but the frustration on the court has not affected his pride on the love field, with a handsome appearance plus the high income of NBA players, Parsons' girlfriend around him has also changed stubble after stubble, since then Parsons has put all his talents on the feelings but luck is on the contract, and most of the two years of the lone ranger are spent in recuperation, But such an encounter did not make him snubbed in the trading market, after leaving the Lone Ranger, the Grizzlies signed him with a four-year, $94 million maximum salary contract, I don't know if the Grizzlies management at the time was a fool or fancy to Parsons's face, the deal was reached so that Parsons has since entered the ranks of billionaires.
After going to Memphis, Parsons not only brought his own appearance but also brought his own injuries, meniscus surgery direct season reimbursement, the management of the Grizzlies should now be glad that they selected Morant with the draft pick, the team's results are now among the best in the West, otherwise parsons alone this deal has many people were fired, to know that the return of the $94 million spent is seriously disproportionate, count Parsons' 9-year career, in addition to the first three years of the Rockets are more outstanding, The next six years are really lying to earn, and in six years he lay down to make $124 million, the peak of a proper life, ah, to know that such a salary is a lot of NBA players can not reach the existence of a lifetime.
Parsons announced that retirement is a win-win situation for the Grizzlies and himself, and now the Grizzlies are playing better and better, and there is no impact at all with Parsons, but his retirement can vacate a place, and Parsons can also calm down and be the prodigal son of his love field. Sometimes that's the case, for many NBA players, big contracts are flashed, many people can't get it because they don't know they're overconfident, Parsons is one of the lucky ones among smart people, fortunately, even if the injury continues, there are still teams that give him big contracts, and the smart thing is that he grasped it in time, which is a case for other players to learn.
