If you follow professional sports, you've probably heard about athletes signing massive contracts. But a "supermax" deal isn't just big money; it's a special type of contract designed to keep top talent with their original teams, and it's changing how players get paid.
A'ja Wilson, a two-time WNBA MVP, recently signed the largest contract in WNBA history, sparking interest in how these deals work.
Wilson's deal with the Las Vegas Aces is for two years and $480,650, making her the highest-paid player in the league.
