You couldn’t script a wilder year for Jeremy Sochan if you tried.
Back in February, things looked rough. Getting waived by the Spurs and watching his season stall out could've broken a lot of guys.
But instead, he lands a late-season gig with the Knicks, buys into the culture, and ends up checking into Game 5 of the NBA Finals to help seal the Knicks' first championship in 53 years.
But the financial side of this is just hilarious.
Because he signed a rest-of-season veteran minimum for about $806,000, that playoff run completely changed his summer plans.
The Knicks' championship bonus pools out to roughly $770,000 per player.
He literally almost DOUBLED his entire Knicks salary.
On top of the massive bag, he officially becomes the FIRST Polish player in NBA history to win a championship ring.
Talk about being in the right place at the absolute perfect time. 🏆💸
