    Will Sport Players still get paid like normal in all sports now?

    I can't find anything on this? Such as do NBA players still get paid like normal now that the season is cancelled?

    Same with MLB, NHL, XFL etc..???


    Are all sports athletes truly out of work and not getting paid now?

    I’d assume they get paid what’s in their contract. No different than being out with an injury, but I’m clueless on this one. Good question.

    i am sure. otherwise you would see the players saying it is dumb to cancel and putting up more of a fight.

    The leagues are cancelled it's done.. There is no revenue coming in now. That happened outside of the normal contract I would think.. "Act of God" type stuff.. I would think all pay checks going out are suspended too..

    I don't know though? If they do get paid like normal then this is like a paid vacation like never before seen!!!

    i highlt doubt it

    no fans in the seats. no product for networks so no commercials

    if you look at what nba owners profit at the end of a season its not huge percentage wise

    I don't believe they get paid unless the games are played, or ultimately canceled, the latter likely triggering an insurance payout.

    Players get paid weekly during the season, and not at all in off season, at least that's how MILB was

    He was the first to test positive as a pro athlete and that got the suspension ball rolling in all sports.. BASTARD!!!

    We may have had another week or two of sports if it wasn't for that infected jerk off.

    Definitely. Obnoxious as can be, but he’s solid to his employees.

    Figured they’d get paid. Sucks for guys making the minimum, or in the G League, or on 10 day contracts, etc. Not so much the league min guys, as they sit on the bench and collect a check.

    Always figured the money was guaranteed. They still get paid if they’re hurt though, right?

    Makes sense. No money being made to pay them.

    NBA has insurance in the contracts. NBA's insurance will pay for the rest of the contracts. Kinda like workman's compensation for pro athletes.
