Here are Jaylen Brown's NBA record setting contract extension numbers:
Typically when you ink someone to the richest contract in NBA history you want them to be a #1 guy on a potential championship team and/or a MVP candidate. When you sign non MVP/#1 guys like Bradley Beal or Mike Conley Jr. to these deals they end up becoming regrettable. The hope here is that Jaylen Brown will make a leap in this coming season 8 into a superstar player, a perennial All-Star and All-NBA player.
