Salary cap designations and what he actually gets paid are two different things. He gets all of the Money from the signing bonus up front but it gets counted as prorated against the cap. I am not sure exactly how the remainder of the money gets spread out in his particular contract but after the 65 Million Signing Bonus is paid that leaves an average of 18.75 Million per year for the rest of the contract. that means he will get somewhere in the ballpark of 83.75 Million this year. So the 80.5 Million number they gave is probably close. It is misleading though because he won't even get an honorable mention on the list next season.
His base salary is listed at $5 M for 2019. It says his signing bonus was $65 M even though it adds up to $71 M on the year-by-year breakdown. It also says $70 M guaranteed at signing.

He doesn't get 83 mil this year. That would destroy the salary cap. They have to be counting the guaranteed at signing. That makes sense . 70 mil plus 19 mil annual salary. But what about the 9 mil in endorsements?

RW extension: $65M salary + $65M signing bonus + $10M roster bonuses.

The Hawks are able to prorate his signing bonus over his 2019 season and the extension for salary cap purposes. $65M/5 = $13M toward the cap.

JS worked the cap to have a smaller affect in 2019. RW was set to make $17M in base salary for 2019. They redistributed $12M into the extension years. The net affect is that the 2019 cap went up by $13M - $12M = $1M.

RW gets $5M base salary plus $30M of his signing bonus in 2019. He gets the other $35M of his signing bonus in 2020.

$5M base salary + $65M signing bonus = $70M guaranteed.

The salaries in the extension years add up to the $65M plus $12M from the redistribution. There's also the roster bonuses of $10M.

He doesn't get 10 million in roster bonuses this year. He doesn't get 30 million of his signing bonus in 2019.

Where did you see the $10M in roster bonuses this year? When does he get $30M?

Nope. In the last paragraph, second sentence, I don't say this year.

Also, when does RW receive $30M of his signing bonus?

He doesn't receive 30 million of his signing bonus this year. Just under 20 of it with a base salary of 5 mil
