College and High school do not get paid. If you are in the NBA usually the owner of the team will negotiate with the basketball players agent. They usually get paid on how popular or good they are but they get about 20 to 30 million dollars a year.
It all depends on your skill level. The average is about $6 million a year.
no they get paid by the year or years or sometimes coaches sign people in the middle of the year and sign them for the rest of the season
