Mobley is set to earn $8.9 million this season and will take home $11.2 million in 2024-25, according to Spotrac. The 7-footer signed a four-year, $36.7 million rookie deal after being selected third overall in the 2021 NBA draft.

Mobley and the Cavaliers open the 2023-24 regular season Wednesday against the Nets in Brooklyn.
