At the time of this writing, negotiations between the Boston Celtics and Jaylen Brown on a possible contract extension are incomplete and on hold. Brown is eligible to sign a 5-year supermax deal after earning All-NBA honors this year, but he and the Celtics have yet to come to terms on such an extension. The Boston Globe’s Adam Himmelsbach reported these negotiations are on pause while Brown attends an NBPA meeting overseas, but both sides are eager to eventually ink a deal.
Brown could sign an extension for five years worth as much as $304 million, depending on estimated changes to the NBA’s salary cap. Such a deal is both longer and more lucrative than Brown could earn with another team as a free agent next summer if he forgoes a new contract with Boston this offseason.
