In the NBA Draft, only the players selected in the first round are guaranteed contracts. Each first-round pick receives a guaranteed deal for at least two years, with the option for a third and fourth year depending on the team's choice. In contrast, second-round picks do not have guaranteed contracts and must negotiate their terms with the team. Overall, the draft's structure means that a significant number of players will enter the league without guaranteed financial security.
Not all NBA contracts are guaranteed. Many players must earn their roster spot to earn their money. One example of this is that first round draft picks have guaranteed contracts, but draft picks after that must make the team before or their contracts are terminated.
