Doncic will be eligible to sign a long-term contract in 2025 that could be the largest in NBA history.
The Mavericks guard will be eligible to sign a long-term contract in 2025 that could be the largest in NBA history. The amount is speculative, given that the NBA salary cap and the terms of the contract will determine the figures, but estimates indicate a five-year deal could be worth $360 million or more. In July, Boston Celtics star Jayson Tatum signed a five-year, $314 million supermax contract extension.
The supermax contract is what was traditionally known as the designated veteran extension. A player with seven to nine years of NBA experience can qualify for a contract worth 35% of the NBA salary cap, or 30% if the player re-signs with a team other than the one that gave him a rookie max extension.
