For what it's worth, the real-world market sizes, revenue, and player expenses.
The market sizes are from the 2017-2021 CBA; the total revenue and player expenses (in millions of dollars) are from the
Forbes 2023 club valuations report and are for the 2022 season. Revenue is net of revenue sharing, luxury tax, and stadium revenue used for debt service; player expenses include benefits and bonuses.
It isn't stated how the CBA determined the market size figures. Presumably it includes metro area population and media market size. Note that any club with a market size over 100 cannot receive revenue sharing.
