That’s actually less than I expected. I would have thought it would be closer to 85 billion dollars for a 4 year contract.

Have you seen NBA contracts for like the last 5-6 years? I mean this is really no surprise. The guy was also just widely considered probably a top 5 free agent in this class. He can pass, rebound, plays great perimeter defense, has a high basketball IQ, and has become a pretty good shooter. What’s so shocking? 21.25 million a year seems pretty on cue to be honest.

Surprisingly low. The Pelicans should have matched.

Former center for the Brooklyn Nets, now the Cavs. No need to “sound edgy” he’s a pretty good player. I’m not sure why y’all are surprised at these contracts. Has nobody paid attention to NBA contracts since 2016? Yeah it’s been out of hand, but this isn’t something that just started going on this year.

Zero problem with this contract. Allen is a stud.

No one has a more undeserved rep than Lonzo ball.

He fricking stinks. His stats are a total mirage.
