Luka Doncic has agreed to a five-year $207 million extension with the Dallas Mavericks, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski and Bill Duffy, Doncic’s agent. Days after returning to Slovenia following an inspired run in the Tokyo Olympics, Doncic is receiving the largest supermax rookie extension in NBA history.
In a much publicized move, a front office contingent that included Dirk Nowitzki arrived in Slovenia to meet with Doncic and Duffy in Ljubljana to physically hand the young star his new max contract. Though free agency began last week Doncic made it clear he wished to focus exclusively on the Olympic tournament and address his contract after.
