While this is not big sports law news, some of you may be wondering how the NBA 10 day contract works.
What is a 10-day contract?
A 10-day contract is just that, a player contract that lasts ten days (or three games, whichever comes later). A team may sign a player to two 10-day contracts in one season (they may or may not be consecutive). After the second 10-day contract, the team can only retain the player by signing him for the remainder of the season. A team can't have more 10-day contracts than they have players on their Inactive List. Ten-day contracts are available to be used starting January 5 (or the first business day thereafter) each season. *
