Wingers Kyle Kuzma, Jerami Grant, Khris Middleton and base Kyrie Irving were two of the main winners of the opening of the market in the NBA. The three players renewed with the teams where they were, Wizards, Blazers and Mavericks respectively, but for much more lucrative values.
Let’s start with one of the main players in this free agency, Kyrie. After several rumors, the baseman ended up staying in Dallas, although not for the four years he intended. The new contract provides for three years, with the last year being a player option. The former Nets player will receive around 126 million for the three years.
Middleton, on the other hand, renewed with the Bucks, with whom he was champion in 2021. The winger, who spent last season affected by several injuries, renewed for three years, for a total of 102 million dollars.
Jerami Grant was one of the big surprises, due to the cost of its renovation. At a time when Lillard’s future is in doubt with the Portland Trail Blazers, the team had no problem offering 160 million dollars to the 29-year-old. This five-year contract is being seen as a way of trying to convince Lillard to stay with the team.
To close, Kyle Kuzma stays with the Wizards, despite the Washington team having entered a rebuilding process. The extreme renewed for four years, with a value of 102 million dollars. The expectation is that Kuzma will be a player available on the exchange market during the season. In this case, it should be remembered that the NBA has a rule that obliges teams to spend a minimum on salaries every year, so, for the Wizards, it helps to have Kuzma receive a high amount and that may, in the future next, be exchanged for other parts.
