❽ Franchise Values [Explanation]
Many people were complaining about teams being stacked and having too many all-stars on their team. We thought one way to prevent this from happening would be to make franchise values. Franchise value put a certain monetary value on a franchise (Not real robux.). Higher record teams such as the Suns, for example, could have a value of R$ 600 million, and smaller market teams like say the Blazers have a value of R$ 75 million.
Players are to be given a certain salary (NOT REAL ROBUX), which would take some of the team's franchise value. An all-star that everyone knows could be worth maybe R$ 100 million, while a benchwarmer who scores low points a game and hardly knows how to play could be given R$ 10,000, which is the bare minimum you could give someone.
Expansion teams start off with R$ 40 million cap value. Teams that contended during season 2 will be given a value based on their record, fan base, and fan attendance. You can gain cap value by increasing your record, fan base, and fan attendance. You can also use cap value money to buy better stuff for your arena, jerseys, etc.
