hoopshype_salaries: *HoopsHype Player Salaries*

In hoopR: Access Men's Basketball Play by Play Data

HoopsHype Player Salaries

Description

Get NBA player salaries from HoopsHype.

Returns the full league's player salaries, one row per player per contract season (current plus future seasons HoopsHype lists). No API key is required; dollar figures are returned as numeric.

HoopsHype is a Next.js app whose single salaries page paginates client-side, but each team's salary page (⁠/salaries/{team}/⁠) embeds that team's complete roster in its ⁠__NEXT_DATA__⁠ payload. This function iterates the 30 team pages and stitches them together (~30 requests per call) using a team-by-team approach.
