Updated · 2026–27 season
Caleb Wilson is on the books for $10,683,720 in 2026–27, the 6th largest cap hit on the Chicago Bulls roster and 6.6% of the team's $161.9M payroll.
That ranks 165th among the 444 players with a 2026–27 salary on the books, and eats 6.5% of the $165.0M salary cap.
The deal has 4 seasons left on it, running through 2029-30, worth $48,520,680 in guaranteed money.
The money climbs as it goes: $10,683,720 in the first year up to $14,866,680 in the last, a 39% rise across the deal.
Not every year is locked in: 2028-29 team option, 2029-30 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 20, he is still inside the cheap early-career window; this deal runs through his age-23 season, before the expensive years start.
He is the 6th highest-paid of the 14 players on the roster, in the middle of the pay structure.
