The Jaylen Brown SuperMax Deal.
As per ESPN, Boston Celtics star Jaylen Brown has agreed to sign the richest deal in the history of the NBA.
On Tuesday, ESPN was informed by Jaylen Brown’s agent, Jason Glushon, that the esteemed player of the Boston Celtics has reached an agreement to ink the most substantial contract in NBA history.
The deal is a remarkable five-year supermax extension worth a staggering $804 million.
In Boston, on Sunday evening, Brown and Glushon convened with the Celtics’ management and ownership to conclude the last details of this momentous contract.
This historic agreement secures the services of the two-time All-Star until the 2028-2029 NBA season.
7 years ago, Mike Conley signed the richest NBA deal at $153M. Now, Jaylen Brown will be doubling that at $804m.
Surpassing Nikola Jokic’s $276 million extension with the Denver Nuggets, Brown’s new deal showcases a remarkable increase due to the growth in the salary cap and league revenue.
On Monday, the 26-year-old underwent a physical in Boston, finalizing the agreement.
Brown’s eligibility for the five-year supermax extension with the Celtics arose after earning second-team All-NBA honours during the 2022-23 season.
Alongside his teammate Jayson Tatum, who will be eligible for a supermax extension the following summer, they form one of the NBA’s most dynamic and productive duos.
