How does a professional sports player's skill impact there pay?
When a sports player is picked in to a professional league they must meet certain standers if they meet them the could potently get picked for that team. If a player does not meet the stander they could get bought out. Witch means what ever there contract said they would make that year like 1,000,000$ 750,000 EX. There manager would pay them that amount and they would be off the team. A player can not join another team until the end of the session. But if a player is good after the years there contracts say they could get a raise in there stalk. When a player get there contract at the beginning of there term the contract says how long it will last and how much they will make a year.
