JaKarr Sampson Signs with 76ers

Quote from: bball purist on September 15, 2014, 05:34:45 PM

If JaKarr makes the team and is sent back to NBDL before season's end, would he automatically receive the $507k league minimum for rookies?

I'd guess that part of the first year 507K is guaranteed and the remainder is not, contingent on his status. (And my guesses nearly got me through public school.) Incentive to sign, incentive to perform, no liability for the 6ers if he doesn't pan out.

Still no word on Jakarr's guarantee, but for example, the Sixers also signed Ronald Roberts, and he was partially guaranteed with the guarantee at $35K.

Sampson signed a 3-year deal worth $2,332,826 according to http://www.spotrac.com/nba/philadelphia-76ers/jakarr-sampson/  No guarantee according to that site. 

Outside of the  locks to make the roster at PF, the other three hopefuls besides Sampson have similar deals but with guaranteed money.  Brandon Davies signed a three-year deal last year for 2.25 million with first year guaranteed at 490k. Jarvis Varnado signed a three year deal for two million  last yearwith 246k guaranteed--75k of that guaranteed for this season. Roberts signed the same deal as Sampson, but is guaranteed 35k this year. Jerami Grant  (SF) signed a three year deal for 2.7 mill with 1.7 guaranteed.

I just don't see any way he makes the roster.  The Sixers owe too much guaranteed money to too many PFs:  Moultrie (1,136,160), Noel (9 mill), Luc Richard Mbah a Moute (4 mill), etc.

"The 76ers have signed former St. John’s forward JaKarr Sampson to a partially guaranteed contract, an NBA source told the Inquirer’s Keith Pompey [...]

"JaKarr Sampson has signed a three-year deal with the Philadelphia 76ers. The contract does include some salary protection "

"The 76ers have signed former St. John’s forward JaKarr Sampson to a partially guaranteed contract, an NBA source told the Inquirer's Keith Pompey."

"The New York Daily News reports that the deal is a partially-guaranteed, three-year contract."

The bad news is that Marillac is cherry picking data to support his insane theory that Jakarr Sampson is not good at basketball. The good news is Marillac has not yet started referring to himself in the third person.

Sampson is starting in tonight's game.

He's playing well. Good for him.

He actually played SG because MCW, Grant, Elliot Williams, Hollis Thompson, and Alexy Shved were all injured.  The game was played at Syracuse and the coach said that and the fact that it was against the Knicks figured into Sampson getting the start after a good week of practice.

Orlando vs. Philly pre-season game last night:

Sampson:  4-7 from the field; 1-1 from three point line; 9 points;  five rebounds (one offensive); 1 assist, 1 block,   2 turnovers  in 23 minutes of time. 

Is he going to make the team?

Harkless in the same game:
6 for 13 from the field;  0-2 from three; 2-6 from the point line.  14 points; 7 rebounds (2 offensive);  2 assists, 3 steals; 2 blocks; 1 turnover.    30 minutes of time.  Other than the free throw shooting, that's a pretty good line.

Moe's FT shooting has been abysmal every time I look.
