Alright, so I’ve been diving deep into player contracts lately, and Devin Booker’s deal with the Suns caught my eye. Let me walk you through what I’ve found and how it all went down.
First off, I started digging around for the initial announcement. It was back in July 2022 – I remember it was all over my sports feeds. That’s when Booker inked that massive four-year extension with Phoenix.
Next, I really wanted the numbers. I mean, that’s the juicy part, right? Turns out, it’s a max contract extension, which is a fancy way of saying he’s getting paid… A LOT. We’re talking about $220.44 million over those four years. Just let that sink in for a second.
Then, I broke down the timeline. When does this deal actually kick in? It starts with the 2024/25 season. So, he’s in the first year of that whopper contract right now. And it goes all the way through the 2027-2028 season. That’s a good chunk of time where Booker’s locked in with the Suns.
- Checked initial reports of the signing (July 2022).
- Confirmed the dollar amount: $220.44 million.
- Pinned down the contract years: 2024/25 to 2027/28.
- It’s confirmed to be a maximum contract extension.
My Final Takeaway
Basically, I went from seeing headlines about the deal to really understanding the specifics. From the date it was signed, to the eye-popping money involved, and the exact seasons it covers. It was a pretty straightforward process, just pulling together the pieces from different sources. And man it’s crazy to see.
