The opening day of the NBA offseason is always a wild ride with a ton of action, and I'm here to track down all of the news. I will update each item with the years, money, and who broke the stories as they come in. My salary projections tend to be pretty accurate based on the total dollars and years that reported, and I'll make note of my reasoning for some of them.
Estimation/Player option/Team option/Not fully guaranteed
Ball agrees to sign-and-trade to Chicago: 4 years, $85 million (Shams)
Bulls receive:
| Lonzo Ball | $19,767,442 | $20,755,814 | $21,744,186 | $22,732,558 |
Pelicans receive:
| Tomas Satoransky | $10,000,000 |
| Garrett Temple | $4,667,442 | ? | ? |
2nd round pick
No reporting yet on Temple's deal aside from Marc Spears saying the last year isn't guaranteed, so I'm estimating an amount needed to match Ball's salary.
Barton re-signs with Denver: 2 years, $32 million (Haynes)
| Will Barton | $15,384,615 | $16,615,385 |
Hardaway re-signs with Dallas: 4 years, $72 million (Shams)
| Tim Hardaway Jr. | $16,071,429 | $17,357,143 | $18,642,857 | $19,928,571 |
8/9 UPDATE: It turns out that it is actually a $75 million contract, and the Mavs are front-loading it according to MacMahon. It's a smart move to have the max decreases per season since they are operating over the cap while not in danger of crossing the luxury tax this season.
| Tim Hardaway Jr. | $21,306,818 | $19,602,273 | $17,897,727 | $16,193,182 |
Conley re-signs with Utah: 3 years, $68 million (Shams)
| Mike Conley | $20,987,654 | $22,666,667 | $24,345,679 |
Marjonavic re-signs with Dallas: two years, $7 million (Shams/Scotto)
| Boban Marjanovic | $3,365,385 | $3,634,615 |
8/9 UPDATE: Details are finally out through Scotto, and it's actually more than ta "one year deal" as Shams first reported last week.
Butler "expected to" sign max extension: 4 years, $184 million (Shams/Krawczynski)
| Jimmy Butler | $36,016,200 | $41,071,429 | $44,357,143 | $47,642,857 | $50,928,571 |
First year of the extension replaces his current $37,653,300 player option for 2022, but I'm a little curious about the reported number because a max contract next year is projected to be $186.6 million. I initially thought that he might be opting into his player option and just adding three years with a 20% raise in 2023, but that ($45,183,960) would take him past the expected max salary for that year ($41,650,000).
Green re-signs with Denver: 2 years, $17 million (Shams)
| JaMychal Green | $8,292,683 | $8,707,317 |
Alec Burks re-signs with New York: 3 years, $30 million (Woj)
| Alec Burks | $9,523,810 | $10,000,000 | $10,476,190 |
Noel re-signs with New York: 3 years, $32 million (Woj)
| Nerlens Noel | $10,158,730 | $10,666,667 | $11,174,603 |
Allen re-signs with Cleveland: 5 years, $100 million (Stein)
| Jarrett Allen | $17,241,379 | $18,620,690 | $20,000,000 | $21,379,310 | $22,758,621 |
Olynyk signs with Detroit: 3 years, $37 million (Woj)
| Kelly Olynyk | $11,746,032 | $12,333,333 | $12,920,635 |
Payne re-signs with Phoenix: 3 years, $19 million (Haynes)
| Cameron Payne | $6,031,746 | $6,333,333 | $6,634,921 |
Young "likely" to sign max extension with Atlanta (Schultz/Amick)
| Trae Young | $8,326,471 | $29,750,000 | $32,130,000 | $34,510,000 | $36,890,000 | $39,270,000 |
$172 million contract could become $207 million if he makes an All-NBA team next season.
McConnell re-signs with Indiana: 4 years (Shams)
| T.J. McConnell | $8,139,535 | $8,546,512 | $8,953,488 | $9,360,465 |
Robinson re-signs with Miami: 5 years, $90 million (Woj)
| Duncan Robinson | $15,517,241 | $16,758,621 | $18,000,000 | $19,241,379 | $20,482,759 |
Craig signs with Pacers: 2 years, $10 million (Woj)
| Torrey Craig | $4,910,000 | $5,155,500 |
Using the equivalent of the Room MLE amount as a placeholder for now.
McDermott signs with Spurs: 3 years, $42 million (Shams)
| Doug McDermott | $13,333,333 | $14,000,000 | $14,666,667 |
8/8 UPDATE: This officially was completed as a sign-and-trade with San Antonio sending a 2nd round pick (likely top-55 protected) for McDermott, a 2nd round pick, and the right to swap 2nd round picks in the future so that Indiana could create a Trade Exception of $7,333,333 that was McDermott's previous salary due to Base Year Compensation.
Paul re-signs with Phoenix: 4 years, "up to" $120 million (Haynes)
| Chris Paul | $26,785,714 | $28,928,571 | $31,071,429 | $33,214,286 |
8/3 UPDATE: The final year is a team option according to John Gambadoro of 98.7 FM Phoenix.
Lowry agrees sign-and-trade to Miami: 3 years, "approximately" $90 million (Woj)
Heat receive:
| Kyle Lowry | $27,251,280 | $28,613,844 | $29,976,408
|
Raptors receive:| Precious Achiuwa | $2,711,280 | $2,840,160 | $4,379,527 |
Full details of the moving pieces aren't available yet, but my estimate is based on Goran Dragic and Precious Achiuwa going to Toronto based on previous speculation.
8/6 UPDATE: It is indeed for Dragic and Achiuwa, which made my estimate of $85 million correct.
Brown signs with Dallas: 2 years, $6 million (Stein)
| Sterling Brown | $2,926,829 | $3,073,171 |
Green signs with Denver: 2 years, $10 million (Andrews)
| Jeff Green | $4,910,000 | $5,155,500 |
Using the equivalent of the Room MLE amount as a placeholder for now.
Nwaba re-signs with Houston: 3 years, $15 million (Stein)
| David Nwaba | $4,629,630 | $5,000,000 | $5,370,370 |
Harkless re-signs with Sacramento: 2 years, $9 million (Woj)
| Maurice Harkless | $4,347,600 | $4,564,980 |
Max number is officially $8,912,580 through Non-Bird rights.
Korkmaz re-signs with Philadelphia: 3 years, $15 million (Woj)
| Furkan Korkmaz | $4,629,630 | $5,000,000 | $5,370,370 |
Portis re-signs with Milwaukee: 2 years, $9 million (Shams)
| Bobby Portis | $4,347,600 | $4,564,980 |
Same situation as Harkless above.
Trent re-signs with Toronto: 3 years, $54 million (Woj)
| Gray Trent Jr | $16,666,667 | $18,000,000 | $19,333,333 |
Collins signs with Spurs: 3 years, $22 million (Woj)
| Zach Collins | $6,984,127 | $7,333,333 | $7,682,540 |
Muscala re-signs with Oklahoma City: 2 years, $7 million (Woj)
| Mike Muscala | $3,365,385 | $3,634,615 |
Ariza (re-)signs with the Lakers: one year deal (Woj)
Ellington (re-)signs wih the Lakers: one year deal (Haynes)
| Wayne Ellington | $1,669,178 |
Len signs with Kings: 2 years, $7.6 million (Shams)
| Alex Len | $3,732,000 | $3,918,600 |
Estimating BAE value.
Howard (re-)signs with the Lakers (Shams)
Hill re-signs with Atlanta: one year deal (Woj)
Fournier signs with New York: 4 years, "as much as" $78 million (Woj)
| Evan Fournier | $18,139,535 | $19,046,512 | $19,953,488 | $20,860,465 |
8/17 UPDATE: Boston actually convinced New York to turn this into a sign-and-trade so that they can create a Trade Exception equal to his salary for future possible additions. That flexibility will cost the Celtics two 2nd round picks (one is unlikely to convey, per Tim Bontemps, so likely top-55 protected), and the Knicks send a little bit of cash the other way. UPDATE again: Keith Smith confirms that one of the picks is Charlotte's top-55 protected 2022 pick that was sent in last year's similar Gordon Hayward sign-and-trade that created the Trade Exception used to acquire Fournier. It's like deja vu all over again.
Batum re-signs with the Clippers: two years (Shams)
| Nicolas Batum | $3,170,029 | $3,328,531 |
Based on the initial reporting, it's unclear if this will be coming from the Taxpayer MLE or simply with Non-Bird Rights. This projection is based on the latter as 120% of his minimum salary, and I wouldn't be surprised if there is a play option for the second year.
8/13 UPDATE: It became evident once Winslow was signed with the TP MLE that this is just through Non-Bird Rights, and Ohm Youngmisuk confirms now that it is $6.5 million with the second year being a player option.
Rose re-signs with New York: 3 years, $43 million (Woj)
| Derrick Rose | $13,271,605 | $14,333,333 | $15,395,062 |
The max possible with Early Bird Rights would be $43.5 million, so they can keep his $9,987,804 cap hold on the books to use the rest of their space before making this official.
8/4 UPDATE: According to Ryan McDonough and Zach Lowe, the final years of the deals for Burks, Noel, and Rose are team options like Fournier's final year.
Caruso signs with Chicago: 4 years, $37 million (Woj)
| Alex Caruso | $8,604,651 | $9,034,884 | $9,465,116 | $9,895,349 |
McGee signs with Phoenix: 1 year, $5 million (Haynes)
Joseph re-signs with Detroit: 2 years, $10 million (Haynes)
| Cory Joseph | $4,910,000 | $5,155,500 |
Almost certainly will be the Room MLE after using all of their cap space.
Theis agrees to sign-and-trade to Houston: 4 years, $36 million (Woj)
| Daniel Theis | $8,280,351 | $8,694,369 | $9,108,386 | $9,522,404 |
Using the Oladipo trade exception would technically cap it at $35.6 million.
Zeller signs with Portland: one year deal (Woj)
Lyles signs with Detroit: 2 years, $5 million (Haynes)
| Trey Lyles | $2,500,000 | $2,625,000 |
The minimum for Lyles would be $4.44 million over two years, so "$5 million" might be rounding up.
8/8 UPDATE: Keith Smith clarified that it is for actually over $5 million as they used cap space for the numbers above.
Bullock signs with Dallas: 3 years, $30.5 million (Shams)
| Reggie Bullock | $9,536,000 | $10,012,800 | $10,489,600 |
Estimating with the full MLE if they stay as an over the cap team, which would likely make the Brown signing the BAE.
Tucker signs with Miami: 2 years, $15 million (Shams)
| P.J. Tucker | $7,317,073 | $7,682,927 |
Dieng signs with Atlanta: 1 year, $4 million (Krawczynski)
Graham agrees to sign-and-trade to New Orleans: 4 years, $47 million (Woj)
Pelicans receive:
| Devonte' Graham | $10,930,233 | $11,476,744 | $12,023,256 | $12,569,767 |
Hornets receive:
2022 1st round pick (protected 1-14)
Rivers re-signs with Denver: one year deal (Haynes)
Powell re-signs with Portland: 5 years, $90 million (Woj)
| Norman Powell | $15,517,241 | $16,758,621 | $18,000,000 | $19,241,379 | $20,482,759 |
Griffin re-signs with Brooklyn: one year deal (Woj), minimum contract (Scotto)
His full salary will be $2,641,691 as a veteran of over 10 years, but signing a one year minimum will count for less against the cap to spare their rising luxury tax bill.
Bazemore (re-)signs with Lakers: one year deal (Shams)
Dedmon re-signs with Miami: one year deal (Shams)
Strus re-signs with Miami: 2 years, minimum contract (Woj)
| Max Strus | $1,669,178 | $1,815,676 |
Holmes re-signs with Sacramento: 4 years, "as much as" $55 million
| Richaun Holmes | $10,380,000 | $11,210,400 | $12,040,800 | $12,871,200 |
The phrasing is key because they can only guarantee him around $46.5 million with Early Bird Rights.
McLemore signs with Portland (Scotto)
Ojeleye signs with Milwaukee (Woj)
Gilgeous-Alexander signs max extension with Oklahoma City: 4 years, $172 million
| Shai Gilgeous-Alexander | $5,495,532 | $29,750,000 | $32,130,000 | $34,510,000 | $36,890,000 | $39,270,000 |
Like Young, this could become a $207 million deal.
Vincent re-signs with Miami: 2 years, minimum contract (Shams)
| Gabe Vincent | $1,669,178 | $1,815,676 |
Porter signs with Golden State: minimum contract (Haynes)
As an eight year veteran, he'll make $2,389,641 but only count at the two year minimum if on a one year deal.
Day 2, 8/3
Dekker signs with Toronto (Woj)
Gay signs with Utah: 2 years, $12.1 million (Shams)
| Rudy Gay | $5,890,000 | $6,184,500 |
I am confident in this amount as the Taxpayer MLE.
Bjelica signs with Golden State: one year, minimum contract (Woj)| Nemanja Bjelica | $1,669,178 |
His subsidized salary will be $2,089,447 as a six year veteran.
Brown re-signs with Brooklyn: 1 year, $4.7 million (Woj)The restricted free agent will now have more freedom next season after accepting this qualifying offer.
Hood signs with Milwaukee: one year deal (Woj)
I'm projecting the minimum since he is already making $4 million from his partially guaranteed contract that Toronto still needs to waive. Will make $2,239,543 as a seven year veteran.
Johnson signs with Brooklyn: one year deal (Woj)
If for the minimum as expected, his subsidized salary will be $2,641,691 as a veteran of over 10 years. UPDATE: Since Mills is getting the TP MLE, this has to be for the minimum.
Drummond signs with Philadelphia: one year deal (Woj)
Projecting the minimum for now, which would net him $2,401,535.
Gibson re-signs with New York: one year, minimum contract (Begley)
He'll make the same about as his fellow 2009 draft classmate Johnson above.
Lopez signs with Orlando: 1 year, $5 million (Woj)
Estimating that it's the Room MLE.
Nader re-signs with Phoenix: 2 years, $4.2 million (Shams)
| Abdel Nader | $2,019,231 | $2,180,769 |
Might actually be the minimum over two years, which would be $3.8 million.
Louzada re-signs with New Orleans: 4 year deal (Woj)
| Didi Louzada | $1,489,064 | $1,752,637 | $1,902,137 | $2,057,645 |
Estimating the minimum after his $1,517,981 team option was declined.
8/13 UPDATE: Andrew Lopez reports that the deal is for $7.7 million total with the latter two years non-guaranteed, and that amount means that Louzada actually got a slight raise with Non-Bird rights giving him 120% of his minimum salary.
| Didi Louzada | $1,786,877 | $1,876,221 | $1,965,565 | $2,054,909 |
Mills signs with Brooklyn: 2 years, $12 million (Woj)
| Patty Mills | $5,890,000 | $6,184,500 |
Curry signs extension with Golden State: 4 years, $215 million (Woj)| Stephen Curry | $45,780,966 | $48,070,014 | $51,915,615 | $55,761,217 | $59,606,818 |
Since he will turn 38 at the end of the 2025-2026 season, he was not eligible for a five year extension due to the Over 38 Rule.
Anthony signs with the Lakers: one year deal (Woj)| Carmelo Anthony | $1,669,178 |
His subsidized salary will be $2,641,691 as a veteran of over 10 years.
Monk signs with the Lakers (Woj)
Estimating the minimum for now, which would net him slightly more at $1,789,256.
Knight signs with Minnesota: two-way contract (Scotto)
DeRozan agrees to sign-and-trade to Chicago (Shams)
Bulls receive:
| DeMar DeRozan | $26,984,127 | $28,333,333 | $29,682,540 |
Spurs receive:
| Thaddeus Young | $14,190,000 |
| Al-Farouq Aminu | $10,183,800 |
2025 1st round pick2022 (worst of Bulls', Pistons', or Lakers') and 2025 2nd round picks
Snell signs with Portland: one year deal (Woj)
Horton-Tucker re-signs with the Lakers: 3 years, $32 million (Woj)
| Talen Horton-Tucker | $9,876,543 | $10,666,667 | $11,456,790 |
Nunn signs with the Lakers: 2 years, $10 million (Shams)
| Kendrick Nunn | $4,878,049 | $5,121,951 |
Smith signs with Charlotte: 2 years, $4.5 million guaranteed (Shams)
| Ish Smith | $4,500,000 | $4,725,000 |
Estimating the total amount based on the team option and guarantee reported. This could be completed with the Room MLE after other signings occur.
Morris signs with Miami: one year deal (Woj)
| Markieff Morris | $1,669,178 |
Hill (re-)signs with Milwaukee once he clears waivers (Shams) 8/5 UPDATE: 2 years, $8 million
| George Hill | $3,902,439 | $4,097,561 |
Niang signs with Philadelphia: 2 years, $6.7 million (Dowsett)
| Georges Niang | $3,268,293 | $3,431,707 |
Likely part of the MLE but could be the BAE.
Landale signs with San Antonio: two-way contract (Shams)
Whiteside signs with Utah (Woj)
| Hassan Whiteside | $1,669,178 |
Forbes (re-)signs with San Antonio (Shams)
Day 3, 8/4
Collins re-signs with Atlanta: 5 years, $125 million (Woj)
| John Collins | $21,551,724 | $23,275,862 | $25,000,000 | $26,724,138 | $28,448,276 |
Walker to sign with New York after finalizing OKC buyout (Woj)
| Kemba Walker | $8,365,682 | $8,783,966 |
Was due salaries of $36,016,200 and $37,653,300 the next two seasons before presumably giving some back to the Thunder to secure his freedom. I am temporarily estimating that he will get almost all of their remaining cap room while leaving enough to sign one of their 2nd round picks to a minimum deal longer than two years.
8/9 UPDATE: Keith Smith reports that Walker gave up $20 million total in his buyout with Oklahoma City: $9,777,778 this season and $10,222,222 for next year.
Wagner re-signs with Orlando: two year deal (Robbins)
| Moritz Wagner | $1,729,216 | $1,878,719 |

| Tony Bradley | $1,789,256 | $2,036,317 |
Kanter (re-)signs with Boston: one year deal (Shams)
Oladipo re-signs with Miami: one year deal (Shams)
He will make $2,389,641 while the Heat retain his full Bird Rights to possibly re-sign at a much higher salary next summer.
Davis re-signs with Sacramento: 2 years, $8 million (Scotto)
| Terence Davis | $3,846,154 | $4,153,846 |
Paschall traded to Utah (Woj)
Jazz receive:
Warriors receive:
2026 2nd round pick (protected 31-42)
Pick details came from Anthony Slater after Woj broke the news, and Golden State also creates a small Trade Exception the equivalent of this salary. Utah will likely complete this by absorbing the pending restricted free agent into the Tony Bradley Trade Exception from last year.
Dinwiddie agrees to sign-and-trade to Washington: 3 years, $62 million (Shams/Woj)
Wizards receive:
| Spencer Dinwiddie | $19,604,171 | $20,584,379 | $21,564,588 |
| Kentavious Caldwell-Pope | $13,038,862 | $14,004,703 |
| Kyle Kuzma | $13,000,000 | $13,000,000 | $13,000,000 |
| Montrezl Harrell | $9,720,900 |
#31 pick (Isaiah Todd)Cash considerations from Indiana
Lakers receive:
| Russell Westbrook | $44,211,146 | $47,063,478 |
Bulls' 2023 2nd round pick
2024 2nd round pick (Worse of Grizzlies' or Wizards')
Wizards' 2028 2nd round pick
Spurs receive:
| Chandler Hutchison | $4,019,459 |
2022 2nd round pick (Best of Bulls', Lakers', or Pistons')
Pacers receive:
#22 pick (Isaiah Jackson)
Nets receive:
2024 2nd round pick (Better of Grizzlies' or Wizards')
Right to swap Warriors' 2025 2nd for Wizards' 2025 2nd
Draft rights to Nikola Milutinov (26th pick in 2015)
I'm projecting the starting salary based on this needing to technically be a part of the Russell Westbrook trade previously involving the Lakers and Pacers. By Washington sending out his large salary, they could take back up to $55,363,933, and when you take away the three Lakers' salaries, that leaves you with a starting salary of $19,604,171. With 5% raises each year, that puts the total at $61,753,137, and I'm guessing that's how the negotiations started. The #22 pick becoming involved for Holiday necessitated Hutchison going to San Antonio now, and although I believe that technically could've even gotten Dinwiddie up to $65 million, Washington is already jumping through hoops by sending draft picks out to make this whole deal work.
To facilitate this for their former player, Brooklyn got a couple of those assets and created a Trade Exception of $11,454,048, aka Dinwiddie's previous salary due to Base Year Compensation. Coincidentally, San Antonio already owned the worst of the Bulls', Lakers', or Pistons' 2nd round pick next year, and now they also get the best of them as thanksfor taking on salary here.
8/5 UPDATE: Fred Katz has all of the moving parts that I've updated now, and it's pretty close to
my initial stab at the full deal. Looks like LA got an extra pick added from the initial report as compensations for expanding their deal with Washington, and Dinwiddie's third year is only partially guaranteed.
Lee re-signs with Detroit: three year deal (Woj)
Neto re-signs with Washington (Shams)
Green re-signs with Philadelphia: 2 years, $20 million (Sanford)
| Danny Green | $9,615,385 | $10,384,615 |
Day 4, 8/5
Randle signs extension with New York: 4 years, "$117 million" (Woj)
| Julius Randle | $19,800,000 | $23,760,000 | $25,660,800 | $27,561,600 | $29,462,400 |
It's really only $106,444,800 guaranteed with Woj doing the agent a favor by reporting the higher number that includes incentives in order to get the scoop.
Wainright signs with Toronto (Woj)
| Ishmail Wainright | $925,258 | $1,563,517 |
Kaminsky re-signs with Phoenix: one year deal (Stein)
Williams re-signs with Atlanta: 1 year, $5 million (Shams)

| Khem Birch | $6,349,206 | $6,666,667 | $6,984,127 |
Oubre signs with Charlotte: 2 years, $26 million (Haynes/Shams)
| Kelly Oubre | $12,195,122 | $12,804,878 |
8/7 UPDATE: After Haynes first broke the news that Oubre was signing with Charlotte and Shams reported 2/$26M, Haynes now reports that the deal is official and $25 million. Slater adds that only $5 million of the second season is guaranteed.
Day 5, 8/6
Hernangomez re-signs with New Orleans: three year deal (Shams)
| Willy Hernangomez | $2,327,219 | $2,443,580 | $2,559,941 |
8/17 UPDATE: Andrew Lopez reported that it's a $7.3 million deal with a team option for the last year, which means that he was signed for the highest salary Non-Bird rights would allow (120% of his minimum) to result in these numbers.
Iguodala (re-)signs with Golden State: 1 year, minimum contract (Abrams)
His full salary will be $2,641,691 as a veteran of over 10 years, but it was important that it's only a one year deal to count for less against the harsh repeater tax.
Bembry signs with Brooklyn: 1 year, minimum contract (Woj)
| DeAndre' Bembry | $1,669,178 |
Jackson re-signs with the Clippers: 2 years, $22 million (Woj)
| Reggie Jackson | $10,380,000 | $11,210,400 |
This is the highest salary that they could pay him with Early Bird Rights, but I'm surprised they kept it at the minimum of two years when it could be up to four.
Green re-signs with Chicago: two year deal (Woj)
| Javonte Green | $1,669,178 | $1,815,676 |
Allen traded to Milwaukee (Woj)
Milwaukee receives:
Memphis receives:
Two future 2nd round picks
This likely uses up most of the D.J. Augustin Trade Exception from February's trade for P.J. Tucker.
Leonard to re-sign with the Clippers: terms being finalized (Haynes)
8/12 UPDATE: He finally settled on what kind of contract he wanted, and it's a 3+1 according to Haynes. This puts him on the same timeline as Paul George with the same 4 years, $176,265,152 contract.
| Kawhi Leonard | $39,344,900 | $42,492,492 | $45,640,084 | $48,787,676 |
Winslow signs with the Clippers: two year deal (Woj)
| Justise Winslow | $3,902,439 | $4,097,561 |
8/9 UPDATE: I've added the updated salary now with Winslow actually getting most of the TP MLE according to Keith Smith. This leaves enough of the exception to possibly sign both of their two 2nd round picks to three year deals instead of just two years with the minimum exception, and Shams reported yesterday that this was indeed the case for BJ Boston at least.
Durant to sign a max extension with Brooklyn: 4 years, $198 million (Woj)
| Kevin Durant | $42,018,900 | $44,119,845 | $47,649,433 | $51,179,020 | $54,708,608 |
This replaces the $43,928,850 player option that he had for the 2022-2023 season, and like Curry, he couldn't go longer due to the Over 38 Rule (they were both born in 1988).
Yurtseven re-signs with Miami: two year deal (Marks)
| Omer Yurtseven | $1,489,064 | $1,752,637 |
Although they declined the $1,517,981 team option last week, he was brought back with a longer deal after dominating the first two games of summer league with 52 points and 27 rebounds overall.
Day 8, 8/9
Doncis officially agrees to max extension: 5 years, $207 million (Woj)
| Luka Doncic | $10,174,391 | $35,700,000 | $38,556,000 | $41,412,000 | $44,268,000 | $47,124,000 |
Since Doncic has already been voted first-team All-NBA twice, he's eligible for 30% of next year's projected salary cap ($119 million) that is typically reserved for players with 7-9 years of experience compared to the 25% max contracts that Young and Gilgeous-Alexander are initially set to earn.
Bacon signs with New York (Bontempts)
Payton signs with Phoenix: one year deal (Shams)
Hommes signs two-way contract with New Orleans (Woj)
Jackson re-signs with Detroit: 2 years, $6 million (Woj/Scotto)
| Frank Jackson | $2,926,829 | $3,073,171 |
8/10 UPDATE: Scotto provides the details that it's $6 million over the two years with a team option next season.
Chiozza signs two-way contract with Golden State (Woj)
Day 9, 8/10
Schroder signs with Boston: 1 year, $5.9 million (Woj)
| Dennis Schroder | $5,890,000 |
The Celtics are crossing into the luxury threshold by using the TP MLE here, which is a far cry from the 4 year, $84 million extension that the Lakers offered him during the season.
Day 8, 8/9
McGruder re-signs with Detroit: 1 year, minimum contract (Scotto)
| Rodney McGruder | $1,669,178 |
It's a pretty big pay cut after he was waived before his original $5 million salary became guaranteed.
Brazdeikis signs two-way contract to return to Orlando (Robbins)
Bonga signs with Toronto (Stein)
Day 12, 8/13
Omoruyi signs two-way contract with Dallas (Mavs PR)
Dotson re-signs with Chicago on two-way contract (Shams)
Day 14, 8/15
LA reduces tax bill and roster spots in point guard shuffle (Woj)
Grizzlies receive:
| Patrick Beverley | $14,320,987 |
Clippers receive:
| Eric Bledsoe | $18,125,000 | $19,375,000 |
LA was facing a roster crunch with 17 guaranteed salaries plus Yogi Ferrell's non-guaranteed deal, so this solved that issue while also reducing their luxury tax payment by at least $20 million and approaching $30 million, depending on what happens with Ferrell. The Clips also create a Trade Exception equal to Rondo's salary, but they are now on the hook for Bledsoe's salary next season that has $3.9 million guaranteed. Now the onus is on Memphis to clear roster spots since they currently have 17 guaranteed salaries.
Day 15, 8/16
Hart re-sings with New Orleans: 3 years, $38 million (Woj)
| Josh Hart | $11,728,395 | $12,666,667 | $13,604,938 |
Smart extends with Boston: 4 years, $77.1 million (Shams)
| Marcus Smart | $14,339,285 | $17,207,142 | $18,583,713 | $19,960,285 | $21,336,856 |
Day 16, 8/17
Embiid signs max extension with Philadelphia: 4 years, $196 million (Shelburne)
| Joel Embiid | $31,579,390 | $33,616,770 | $43,732,500 | $47,231,100 | $50,729,700 | $54,228,300 |
Important note in Shelburne's story of this news is that the salary cap projection for the summer of 2023 is now $124.95 million, which is where these extension estimates come from as 35% of that number in the first season.
Memphis reroutes Beverley to Minnesota (Woj)
Grizzlies receive:
| Juan Hernangomez | $7,012,440 | $7,531,880 |
| Jarrett Culver | $6,395,160 | $8,109,063 |
Timberwolves receive:
| Patrick Beverley | $14,320,987 |
Day 18, 8/19
Rozier extends with Charlotte: 4 years, $97 million (Shams)
| Terry Rozier | $17,905,263 | $21,486,316 | $23,205,221 | $24,924,126 | $26,643,031 |
This is the highest amount that he could sign for in an extension, but its nowhere close to a max contract since he could have technically get a starting salary as high as $35.7 million next summer. The terms "max" and, even worse, "supermax" get thrown around way too much as agents try to make themselves look good when feeding info to reporters.
Diallo re-signs with Detroit: 2 years, $10.4 million (Woj)
| Hamidou Diallo | $5,000,000 | $5,400,000 |
Day 19, 8/20
Williams extends with Boston: 4 yers, $54 million (woj)
| Robert Williams III | $3,661,976 | $12,053,571 | $13,017,857 | $13,982,143 | $14,946,429 |
