In a fictional league I signed a 24 year old to a 10 year $410 million dollar deal. He made his debut at 17 and had 3 MVPs by age 24 so he was vastly underpaid at that point. He looked like a sure thing and I paid him like one.
Sadly it was not to be as he was wrecked by medium term and long term injuries. My season length in this universe is 140 games and he played in only 271 games out of a possible 840 games over the six seasons he remained on the league. He retired just after his 30th birthday and left $170 million left on his contract.
He was still actually a borderline HOF candidate based on his first 7 seasons and still being amazing when he was able to play.
