According to El Correo, as relayed by BasketNews, Howard is expected to earn around \u20ac1 million per season on his two-year deal with Zenit St. Petersburg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Howard\u2019s departure from Vitoria was neither a transfer nor a loan. Baskonia and the player agreed to terminate a contract that still had this season and next season remaining. Howard was reportedly due around \u20ac2 million net this year and slightly more in 2027-28.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The difference between that salary and his new Zenit deal led Baskonia to agree to compensation of roughly \u20ac2 million, which will be paid in installments. Howard also reportedly agreed to defer part of the payment to help facilitate his exit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Baskonia will reportedly pay Markus Howard around \u20ac2 million in compensation after his exit, while Zenit is set to pay him about \u20ac1 million per season<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":146,"featured_media":510544,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_spbk_hide_featured":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[34,82],"tags":[],"rumors":[],"typology":[],"posizionamento":[],"class_list":["post-551670","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-acb","category-euroleague"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2026\/08\/DE9_5371.jpg","digistream_id":0,"digistream":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/551670","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/146"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=551670"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/551670\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":551671,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/551670\/revisions\/551671"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/510544"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=551670"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=551670"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=551670"},{"taxonomy":"rumors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rumors?post=551670"},{"taxonomy":"typology","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/typology?post=551670"},{"taxonomy":"posizionamento","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posizionamento?post=551670"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
