Overview
- Booker and owner Mat Ishbia sealed the extension in a private Las Vegas meeting this week.
- The contract spans two seasons at $145 million and sets a new league record with a $72.5 million average annual value.
- Combined with his existing deal, Booker will be under contract for five seasons and $316 million in total.
- Since being drafted 13th overall in 2015, the 28-year-old guard has spent his entire career in Phoenix and became the franchise’s all-time leading scorer last season.
- Phoenix’s new management led by GM Brian Gregory and coach Jordan Ott has reshaped the roster—and traded Kevin Durant—to build around Booker.
