Jaylen Brown is seeing nothing but green.
The Boston Celtics’ star has agreed to sign the richest deal in NBA history – a five-year, $304 million supermax extension, his agent, Jason Glushon, told ESPN.
The extension kicks in during the 2024-25 season when he’ll earn $52.4 million, the largest amount a player has ever made in a single season.This contract surpasses reigning NBA champion Nikola Jokic’s $276 million extension from 2022. It also comes with a guaranteed trade kicker, although Brown had to relinquish the typical player option that stars have in their final year under contract to receive it.
Brown’s talent has never been the question – he’s coming off the best season of his career with averages of 26.6 points, 6.9 rebounds, and 3.5 assists and earned himself both an All-Star nod along with his All-NBA Second Team selection.
