So that is more than worth it for them. The players they have are very marketable, they all sell, they all appeal to different NBA fan demographics. It's not just Lebron James and then a bunch of whatever.
Each player literally has their own fan base. Klay was just in China? He looks like a god over there.

This is what the luxury tax was paid by teams in 2016:
Cleveland 54 million (which is basically unheard of thus far)
Clippers 19 million
Golden State 14 million
Oklahoma City 14 million
San Antonio 5 million
Houston 5 million
Chicago 4 million
The other 23 teams didn't pay anything.
