Point guard Spencer Dinwiddie, in the midst of a breakout season with the Nets, will have his contract guaranteed for the rest of the year, tweets Michael Scotto of Basketball Insiders.
Dinwiddie has been a bargain on his $1,524,305 salary, taking over the starting point guard role and nearly doubling his numbers from last season with 13.0 points and 6.4 assists per game.
The 24-year-old also has a non-guaranteed deal for next season worth $1,656,092. Today marks the deadline for teams to waive players before their salaries become fully guaranteed on Wednesday.
