The Golden State Warriors Extend Adonal Foyle’s Contract (2004)

After being taken with the 8th overall pick in the 1997 NBA Draft, center Adonal Foyle averaged less than six points a game in each of his first seven seasons, and pulled down less than seven rebounds per game in six of those seven seasons.
Yet, the Golden State Warriors thought it’d still be a good idea to sign Foyle to a six-year, $42 million contract. Foyle’s stats then took another dip immediately after signing that deal, leading to the Warriors waving Foyle, even though he had three years and $29.2 million remaining on his contract.
