Lauri Markkanen will be a member of the Utah Jazz for a while yet— and he'll be very well-compensated.
On Wednesday, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported Markkanen had inked a five-year, $238 million extension with the Jazz. Markkanen made the All-Star team in his first season with Utah and followed it up with a solid 2023-24 in which he averaged 23.2 points per game despite dealing with various injuries.
