The NBA will increase the salary cap by 10 percent for the 2025-26 season, ESPN reported.
The increase — the maximum allowed under the collective bargaining agreement — is reportedly projected to bring the cap number from $140.6 million to $154.6 million. Additionally, the luxury tax threshold is projected to rise from $170.8 million to $187.9 million, per Tuesday’s report.
For teams that exceed the tax, the First Apron Level is projected to be $195.9 million and the Second Apron Level to be $207.8 million.
It is a move that was anticipated ahead of the league’s new broadcast rights kicking in next season.
It would mark the third time in the past four years that the salary cap has increased by 10 percent.
