The NBA salary cap is the limit to the total amount of money that National Basketball Association teams are allowed to pay their players. Like the other major professional sports leagues in North America, the NBA has a salary cap to control costs and benefit parity, defined by the league's collective bargaining agreement (CBA).
The collective bargaining agreement (CBA) of the National Basketball Association (NBA) is a contract between the league (the commissioner and the 30 team owners) and the National Basketball Players Association (NBPA), the players' union, that dictates the rules of player contracts, trades, revenue distribution, the NBA draft, and the salary cap, among other things.
After the 2024 season, the league and its players' union entered into a new CBA that will run through the 2030 season. The new CBA has no individual salary caps, but retains the "maximum cap charge" concept and a team salary cap, with the team cap initially set at $3.3 million for the 2025 season and increasing annually to $5.1 million for 2030.
