Summary
The high salaries professional athletes receive are fair. Why? In an unrestricted free market like the one athletes compete in, salaries are determined by what someone will pay for your services, and team owners are willing to pay athletes extraordinary salaries.
Missing Connection
The conclusion is about fairness, but the premises don’t talk about fairness.
How to get from premises to conclusion? According to the premises, we know that team owners are willing to pay athletes extraordinary salaries. We can infer the argument’s conclusion if we assume that if someone is willing to pay an athlete a high salary, that salary is fair.
