Nuggets with possibly the worst contract ever, dethroning the Lakers' Luol Deng one?

[TheGoatest]

$92 million over 4 years for a 26-30 year-old, who averaged these numbers with them last season:

10.2 ppg
4.7 rpg
2.2 apg

He could've literally averaged twice that (20.4 ppg/9.4 rpg/4.4 apg) and that extension still wouldn't look good.

No wonder you have scrubs like Schroder thinking they're worth 100 mil. :oldlol:

They were rolling as soon as he got there. He has the size and athleticism to defend the elite players in the west (Luka/Lebron/Kawhi).

$23 million/yr is roughly half of what John Wall is making. :oldlol:

Get used to these kind of contracts. GM’s are hedging against new possible CBA. 20 mil for a roleplayer in a few years will be the going rate. And you know what? Good for the players. Hell, I hope they make more. The NBA is stacking the revenue regardless, it’s just a matter of how much profit goes to the owners vs the players.

Deng is a tough one to beat though considering he didn't play for so much of the contract.
