You can check total per team and each player on a team. Play around.
Well it depends if you are good are not. If you are a bench warmer, you'll probaly get the league minimum which is about $950,000.

But if you are great, like Kobe Bryant, Shaqu, D Wade, or Lebron James, you'll get paid anywere from $45,000,000 to $87,000,000.

Now if you are average that is a different story. If you are good but not great. For example, Carlos Boozer, Yoa Ming, Shane Battier, or Paul Gasol. You will get paid anywere from $1,000,000 to $15,000,000.

Hope this is enough. Do good on your project!

I was watching a basketball game and they said the average salary for basketball player was 5.5 million dollars.
Didier Ilunga-Mbenga, an injured reserve, earns 1.6m. KG earns 21m. Shaq 20m. Just go the the website of ESPN basketball and find player cards. Their salaries are written there.
