Same paycheck, different ceilings

Mikko and Robo both sit on a $143K need. The model’s high ends are not the same — and that’s the fun.

Two Stars. Same $12M gold AAV for 2026–27. Same night need on the first 84-game slate: $143K.

That’s the paycheck tease. The desk doesn’t stop there.

What the model says (high end)

On a full role / healthy band:

Mikko — up toward 102 points (playmaker ceiling).
Robo — up toward 99 points, with a ~47-goal upside (sniper ceiling).

Those are internal high ends, not guarantees. They’re the same numbers on the living board, the Mikko and Robo earn cards, and the share/OG proof when you post a link.

Why the desk cares

Same need means the night-earn story is fair to compare. Different ceilings mean the kind of production can diverge — helpers vs finish — while both still clear or miss the same paycheck rate.

Open the names. Watch the need. Pick a side. The archive and house iXG are there when you want receipts.
