Studs | Super Solids | Safes | Contract Year

Knowing the 2008-09 NBA contract year players list is helpful in a couple of ways. For fantasy basketball enthusiasts, you can put this knowledge into your strategy during your fantasy basketball draft as the NBA player in question will be motivated to produce and what fantasy basketball manager doesn't like that from their player? And on the reality side of things, it let's fans know which players will be available after the season, giving hope for new acquisitions or relief in getting rid of a player.

Note a few things about this list:

  • If nothing appears following a player's name, it means that the respective player does not have any contractual agreements after this season.
  • If "(player option)" appears, the respective player can terminate his contract after the season.
  • If "(team option)" appears, the respective team can terminate the player's contract after the season.
  • If "(qualifying offer)" appears, the respective player can look to sign with a new team, but his old team has the option to match any other contract offer.
