In the 2024/25 season, champions Oklahoma City Thunder were under the league's luxury tax threshold by a margin of over ** U.S. dollars. This marked the time since the 2007/08 season that the NBA champions did not pay the luxury tax. The previous season had seen the Boston Celtics pay a luxury tax over ** million U.S. dollars. Meanwhile, The largest sum paid by any one franchise came in 2022, when the Golden State Warriors paid a staggering million U.S. dollars in luxury tax.

As part of the NBA's salary regulations, as defined in the league's collective bargaining agreement, a luxury tax is levied on teams that surpass a threshold one step above the salary cap. The taxable sum is then evenly distributed between the NBA and the non-tax paying teams.
