The upcoming collective bargaining agreement includes clauses that would allow star players like John Wall to earn an even bigger slice of the pie.

Wall could potentially earn 35 percent of the salary cap under the proposed designated-veteran rule in the new CBA, but he would need to hit certain benchmarks - like making the All-NBA team - before becoming eligible.

That concerns Wall, because his Washington Wizards aren't regularly shown on nationally televised broadcasts, which inform the majority of voters.

"I feel like it’s amazing and crazy because I had my best year, like, two years ago, my second year (as an) All-Star, I averaged 20 and 10 and was a starter but couldn’t make All-NBA team,” Wall lamented to Candace Buckner of the Washington Post.

"So I mean, you want those individual accolades but it’s to the point that (if) you get your recognition, then you get it. You only get those (individual honors) by winning. When I did and had an opportunity to win, I still didn’t make it."

Wall averaged 18.9 points and 9.7 assists over his last three seasons, qualifying him for three All-Star appearances but failing to land him on the All-NBA list. Players like Tony Parker and Goran Dragic have made it over Wall in recent seasons.

Should Wall finally crack the list, he would be eligible for a four-year extension next summer worth roughly $38 million per year - more than double his current salary of $17 million. But if Wall didn't get on the All-NBA team, he would earn $33 million to start in a three-year extension.

Getting more TV exposure would help Wall's case, but the Wizards will only be shown five times on national broadcasts this season.

"We don’t play on TV a lot so a lot of people don’t get to see us play. If you don’t have NBA League Pass and stuff like that, you don’t see the things that I’m doing in the game or what we’re doing trying to win.

"So if you ain’t checking on Twitter and stuff like that, you don’t know. All these other teams get a lot of TV games, that’s why they get these accolades from the media and fan votes. Until we get an opportunity to be on TV more, it would be tough for people to realize and see what I do."
