Overview

• The five-year extension is valued at $240 million, adding four years to Jackson’s current contract starting in 2025-26.
• Jackson’s agent team, led by CAA’s Austin Brown and Max Saidman, negotiated the maximum deal to retain a three-time All-Defensive talent.
• Last season Jackson became the only player to post 1,500 points and 100 blocks and set an NBA record with four consecutive 100-3’s and 100-block campaigns.
• Memphis created cap room for the deal by trading Desmond Bane to acquire Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and draft assets.
• The extension ensures Jackson and Ja Morant remain under contract together through the 2027-28 season, reinforcing the Grizzlies’ championship window.
