That depends on how good they are.

The elite NBA players (LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Kobe Bryant, etc.) make upwards of $20 million a year.

All-star caliber players (Shaquille O'Neal, Carmelo Anthony, Kevin Martin, Chauncey Billups, Brandon Roy, etc.) make around $15 million a year.

Starters or very productive bench players (Francisco Garcia, Trevor Ariza, Tayshaun Prince, Mike Miller, John Salmons, etc.) make around $7-15 million a year.

Starters who aren't very productive, defensive specialists, and bench players (Bruce Bowen, Raja Bell, Sean May, Mikki Moore, etc.) make either the legue minimum (around $800,000 depending on if they are a veteran or not) or around $1-6 million a year.

A rookie starts off with 5 million and the better you are the price goes up.
