Spencer Dinwiddie has proven absolutely crucial to the Dallas Mavericks in this playoff run. While players like Luka Doncic and Jalen Brunson have drawn the most attention with their exploits, Dinwiddie has been a solid player for them and scored big points for them in that run.
The Mavericks will play in the Western Conference Finals thanks in large part to the performances of Spencer Dinwiddie. And if they win the NBA championship, there’s a bonus waiting for him. But this bonus is far from what most fans would expect.
According to his contract, if the Dallas Mavericks won the NBA championship next month, Spencer would owe Dinwiddie a $1 bonus.
Apparently, he negotiated the contract when he signed with the Washington Wizards during the offseason, as he didn’t think the team would win the NBA championship any time soon. That contract was sold to the Mavericks, where the NBA championship has now become an actual possibility.
Dinwiddie earned a bigger bonus by only reaching the second round of the NBA playoffs and earning $100,000. And if he made it to the NBA Finals, he’d make another $400,000 in bonuses.
Dinwiddie may regret including that bonus clause in his contract but given the possibility he could win a league the money won’t be that important to him at the moment.
Stephen A. Smith recently apologized to Spencer Dinwiddie and the rest of the Dallas Mavericks role players for doubting them in their second-round series against the Phoenix Suns, an apology Dinwiddie was quick to accept.
Dinwiddie and the Mavericks play the Golden State Warriors in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals tonight. With both teams having excellent attacking players and great defenders, the series will be exciting.
Will we see the Warriors reignite their dynasty, or will the Mavericks defeat the Warriors and reach the NBA Finals for the first time since 2011? We’ll find out soon enough.
