Players living off one good contract year 

Post#1 » by some_rand » Thu Feb 7, 2008 3:42 am

Erick Dampier the one that comes to mind first.
As well as Adonal Foyle and Mike James.
Can anyone else think of any others?

Um, Sasha is still basically on a rookie scale contract in his 4th year. He's playing well this year and will be resigned but at no more than 2.5 mill a year.

Brain Cardinal ... played decent for a few games and was awarded with a mind-blowing deal compared to his level of play

Larry Hughes. His contract year played great for the Wizards and tricked Cleveland into giving him that contract.
