Every player deserves a fair deal.
Every year thousands of players sign contracts blind — no salary data, no club reviews, no way to know if the agent is legit.
No salary transparency
You get an offer for €2,000/month. Is that good? Bad? Average? You have zero benchmarks. The agent says "trust me." That's it.
Clubs that don't pay
180 arbitration cases at FIBA BAT per year — and that's only the ones who fight back. Most players just take the loss and move on.
Information asymmetry
Agents and clubs know everything. Players know nothing. No Glassdoor. No Transfermarkt. No way to make informed career decisions.
The part of pro basketball nobody shows you.
One player. One contract. One decision made with too little information.
Your career decisions deserve real data.
The intel that agents don't share — now in your hands.
Salary Benchmarks
Anonymous, aggregated salary data by position, experience, and league. Know what you're worth before you negotiate. See median, 25th, and 75th percentiles.
Club Reviews
Real reviews from real players. Payment reliability, coaching quality, living conditions, treatment of imports. Aggregated and anonymous — reviews show only after 3+ submissions.
Agent Ratings
Find agents rated by their own clients. Communication, deal quality, support during the season. See who actually works for you — and who works for themselves.
League Guides
Country-by-country guides: taxes, cost of living, season length, playing culture, visa process. Written by players who've been there.
How it works

Negotiate with confidence
Walk into negotiations knowing the market rate, the club's reputation, and your agent's track record.
The Founder
Players deserve to know what they're signing into.
Former professional basketball player. I signed contracts in Germany without knowing what other players earned, how clubs actually treated imports, or which agents delivered on their promises. After my career I completed a Master's in Computer Science — and realized that data can fix what word of mouth never could. CourtSide exists so the next generation of players never has to sign blind.
