Updated · 2026–27 season
Corey Kispert is on the books for $13,975,000 in 2026–27, the 8th largest cap hit on the Atlanta Hawks roster and 7.3% of the team's $190.9M payroll.
That ranks 136th among the 444 players with a 2026–27 salary on the books, and eats 8.5% of the $165.0M salary cap.
The deal has 3 seasons left on it, running through 2028-29, worth $40,025,000 in guaranteed money.
The money declines rather than climbs, from $13,975,000 down to $13,025,000, a 7% drop that makes the back end easier to absorb in a trade.
Not every year is locked in: 2028-29 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 27, the deal covers his age-27 through age-29 seasons — the prime years teams are usually paying a premium for.
He is the 8th highest-paid of the 16 players on the roster, in the middle of the pay structure.
He is one of 16 players on the Atlanta Hawks' books for 2026–27, whose 2026–27 salaries add up to $190,927,649.
