As the 2024-25 NBA regular season heads into its final stretch, playoff positions are hardening, particularly in the Western Conference, where the Thunder have solidified the No. 1 seed. The competition for the No. 2 seed remains fierce. Meanwhile, in the Eastern Conference, teams like the Cavaliers, Celtics, and Knicks are already playoff-bound. Insiders discuss key aspects to watch, including contract incentives for over fifty players. Notable players have reached bonuses linked to their performances, while others are still vying to secure financial rewards for their teams' success.
Fifty-three players, including Kevin Durant, Derrick White, Aaron Gordon and Dejounte Murray, had incentives in their contracts before the season.
Durant, White and Jae'Sean Tate have reached the criteria and will earn a combined $2 million.
Brooks will earn $1 million when the Houston Rockets clinch a playoff spot.
Randle's $1.4 million bonus is dependent on the Timberwolves reaching the first round.
