Original: The NBA Second Apron Isn’t Squeezing the Middle Class
Analysis from Sportico argues the NBA's second salary cap apron is not actually squeezing middle-class players, contrary to widespread claims about the league's new spending rules. The piece pushes back on the narrative that the punitive cap thresholds are gutting veteran role players' contracts, a debate that has grown louder since the apron began shaping team-building decisions around the league.
