Paolo Banchero signed a 5 year max rookie contract extension that could reach $287,000,000! That’s crazy. I haven’t seen him play much, but I had no idea he was going to be getting that kind of money. I think the NBA might be broken. Fans can’t afford to see games and mid players are going to be billionaires.
Yummy!
Well, he deserves it. He put the Orlando Magic back on the map, and also thanks to his teammates, who have been good role players, especially the Wagner brothers.
This is also a young team with a young core. They just need more experience and chemistry, but I bet they will be back in the playoffs again next season as long as there's no bad injury that will happen.
Putting them on the map would be winning a championship. He hasn’t done anything yet.
In other dumb contract moves… While trying to buy out Bradley Beal’s nightmare contract and having just gave away Kevin Durant for scrubs, the Phoenix Suns are trying to one up themselves by extending Booker at $75 million dollars per year. A reward for him never winning anything… The NBA is lost.
