C’s paying Baby to stay thin?

Just found this buried in the middle of Dime Magazine write up about Dwyane Wade buying a place in Chicago.

Big Baby Davis‘ new contract with the Celtics includes
some weight-based incentives that could be worth as much as $500,000
per season. If that’s not enough motivation to stay below 4X shorts,
nothing will work

Baby is noticeably slimmer as it is… but this is a new wrinkle that I've never heard of.  Are they so concerned that he's going to balloon up that they added this in?  Does this count against the cap?

And since I brought up the D-Wade thing… get ready for a ton of rumors about him playing for the Bulls next year… even though a guy buying a place in his hometown means virtually nothing.
