The Oklahoma City Thunder signed Chet Holmgren for 5 years and 250 million dollars max.
It's really unbelievable money. I still don't understand how they pay these money to these players. I don't think he deserves this contract.
Let's see how long we will see such big contracts.
Overpaid for me. Your value if you won a title and had a great contribution to that run will increase, but not to this extend in my opinion.
TBH, I'm afraid that they will be going the route that Boston did where they didn't care about the luxury tax and will just go to the 2nd apron just to retain their players. Remember when the Celtics went all in on their roster 2 years ago. They did got a title though, but didn't get a draft pick, and now they're unloading some of their players because it doesn't make sense paying tax when you aren't competing for the title next season. I'm not saying that this will happen to OKC as well, but this will be a huge risk for them. If they can pull this out, I will not be surprised if they will win another title with this roster especially they're young as well.
SGA got a huge contract, Chet also got one as well. Let's now wait for JDub to get his as well. I wonder how much of their whole salary cap will be going to these 3 players alone.
