In today's NBA league, big contracts are flying all over the sky, and contracts worth hundreds of millions of dollars are no longer uncommon. The arrival of the NBA's new broadcast contract can provide players with significant gains, and the contracts of future stars will be larger and larger, and the maximum annual salary may exceed $90 million by 2030. Last summer, many young stars reached high-salary contracts with teams, such as Edwards of the Timberwolves, Haliburton of the Pacers, and Ball of the Hornets, all signed five-year $250 million contract extensions with their respective teams. These young stars have a common characteristic, that is, they are in small ball markets, which themselves are difficult to attract superstars, and in order to lock in the young stars they have cultivated, the management has also renewed the young stars at a great cost.

The effect of the big contract extension was immediate, and this year Haliburton and Edwards both led the team to good results, reaching the Eastern Conference Finals and Western Conference Finals respectively. $250 million over five years is certainly not a small number, and the largest contract in the active league is held by Jaylen Brown of the Celtics. Last offseason, Brown reached a five-year $304 million super contract with the Green Army, which is also the first big contract in NBA history to break through $300 million. In this year's playoffs, Shuangtanhua also lived up to expectations, leading the team to first place in the East in the regular season, and easily entered the finals in the playoffs, only one step away from the championship.

is more ruthless than the double tanhua, that is, their opponent in the finals, Mavericks star Doncic. Doncic can be said to be the peak of his debut, just entering the league in his second season, he can average 28.8 points, 9.4 rebounds and 8.8 assists per game. Doncic's rookie contract is 4 years and $32.46 million, and in the summer of '21 he signed an early extension for 5 years and $207 million, and as Doncic continued to break through the ceiling this season, he was not only selected to the first team, but also won the scoring title. According to NBA salary expert Bobby Marks, after being selected for two consecutive years, Doncic is eligible to sign the Mavericks to a five-year, $346 million contract that would far exceed Brown's five-year $300 million and higher than Tatum's next contract extension.

According to Doncic's performance this season, and the Mavericks' current salary space is also very abundant, last year they had a operation, got rid of Bertans and Bullock's premium contracts, and renewed other stars with low salaries, Irving's contract renewal price is not high, and the Mavericks will undoubtedly give Doncic this 5-year, $346 million largest contract in history. In the Western Conference finals against the Timberwolves, Doncic played an average of 40 minutes per game, scoring 32.4 points, 9.6 rebounds, 8.2 assists and 2.2 steals, shooting 47.3% from the field, 43.4% from three-point range, 84.6% from the free throw line, and 62.7% from the field. In addition, so far in the playoffs, he has scored 164 rebounds, 150 assists and 57 three-pointers, becoming the first player in the NBA playoffs to score at least 150 rebounds, 150 assists and 50 three-pointers.

Boom 150+150+50! The first in history! That's why he was able to get a five-year, $346 million contract. Many times, you will find that Doncic's shooting efficiency is not high, but his threat with the ball is huge, one is because of his strong ability to create damage, although Doncic's athleticism is a little worse than other stars, but his confrontation and core strength are top among guards, and his size is also very advantageous, and he can often run under the basket to make kills. The second is that he is very experienced in positional warfare and has a very rich arsenal of offensive weapons, so he can control the pace of the game and seize the opportunity to score in the most relaxed way. Sprinkle. The third is because Doncic not only scores, but the tandem organization is also a must-have in the league, and the Mavericks themselves have two pie-eaters, Gafford and Lively.

Paired with Doncic, the abilities of all three will be bonus, and in the Western Conference finals, facing the twin towers of the Timberwolves, Gobert and Towns, such a luxurious interior configuration, the Mavericks are not at all worthy, and they can still score through the random air connections of Lively and Gafford . That's the beauty of Doncic. When talking about his cooperation with Doncic, Gafford also said in the interview: "When he played that kind of performance, I knew the opponent was going to be in trouble, all I could do was to assist him and create chances for him, and when he played like that, he also infected us and released more energy, and he made a very good foundation for victory." "In the Finals, the Mavericks are still not favored, the Celtics are generally considered to have a better chance of winning the championship, who are you more optimistic about?
