Jaylen Brown and the Boston Celtics agreed on the richest contract in NBA history with their five-year, $304 million supermax deal, but Jimmy Butler reportedly hopes that is just the baseline for his next move.
According to Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel, Butler will look "for an extension soon enough, in essence asking for something even beyond Jaylen Brown money."
Butler is under contract for the next two seasons and then has a $52.4 million player option for 2025-26. While there is no doubting his talent and importance to the Miami Heat, landing a deal of such a magnitude may not happen.
