The Salary Cap Game: Contracts, Stars, and the Maths Behind Building a Team (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798901947869)

Modern American sport is not built by talent alone. Behind every championship roster sits a hidden financial game of salary caps, luxury taxes, guaranteed money, dead money, trades, draft picks, rookie contracts, ageing stars, and ownership pressure.

The Salary Cap Game explains how teams in football, basketball, baseball, and hockey are shaped by contracts as much as by coaching and scouting. Written in a clear, fact-based narrative style, it shows why the smartest organisations do not simply spend more-they spend with timing, discipline, and purpose.

This is a book about the business machinery behind modern team building, where every superstar contract, trade deadline decision, rebuild, and championship window carries a financial consequence.
