NBA salary cap expected to rise to $123.6M in 2022-23

The estimated value of the NBA salary cap for the 2022–23 season is $123.6 million, an increase of $11.6 million over the $112 million number for the prior season. With that amount, the luxury tax line for the 2022–23 season would be around $150.2 million, while the hard cap (which clubs cannot exceed whether they sign and trade a player or if they employ the entire midlevel exception) would be approximately $156.9 million.

Before the league’s moratorium for the start of the 2022-23 league year begins on Thursday at 6 p.m. ET, the final salary-cap figure, which will be decided once the league’s financial audit is finished and the revenue connected to basketball for the 2021-22 season is completed, will be delivered to teams. Due to the fact that the league had to play through the COVID-19 epidemic for portions of each of the previous three seasons, the cap rise of $11.6 million would also roughly correspond to the amount the cap has climbed from 2017–18 through 2021–22. Although this number first appears to be fairly high, previous eras saw comparable rises.
