Adou Thiero is on the books for $2,150,917 in 2026–27, the 16th largest cap hit on the Los Angeles Lakers roster and 1.1% of the team's $200.9M payroll.
That ranks 427th among the 444 players with a 2026–27 salary on the books, and eats 1.3% of the $165.0M salary cap.
The deal has 2 seasons left on it, running through 2027-28, worth $4,676,818 in guaranteed money.
The money climbs as it goes: $2,150,917 in the first year up to $2,525,901 in the last, a 17% rise across the deal.
Not every year is locked in: 2027-28 team option.
The option year belongs to the team, which makes that season a decision point rather than a commitment: it can be picked up cheaply or declined outright.
At 22, he is still inside the cheap early-career window; this deal runs through his age-23 season, before the expensive years start.
He sits in the bottom third of the roster by salary, the part of the payroll teams use to fill out the depth chart without moving the cap needle.
