I’m not fighting with you man
I’m just glad he’s staying anyone woulda gave him that money , he can be a borderline all star with wemby

Is that the max extension?
max would have been 5/207 like Bane got
this is about 60 mil less than that
Dude's gonna feast with the room he gets with Wemby on the floor.
Nice, glad to have him locked up. Hoping for a big season from him.
I hope it's fronloaded to absurd. Good for Vassell
Getting Bullock out of here really opened up that spot for Devin to be a big contributor this year…
In all seriousness, fair deal and shows that the Spurs really believe in Dev. I’m a little skeptical of him still, but trust the Spurs opinion way over mine!
Also, a good example of why people freaking out over $25-30MM deals shouldn’t be. That’s the going rate for non All-Stars who are still part of your core these days.
Wonder if this is front loaded, that would be nice.
Someone said that 44 players are projected to make more than him after this season.
I don’t recall the specifics that a bunch of us calculated and discussed while contemplating Tyler Herro, but I think it’s not that far off from Danny Green’s deal in terms of % of the cap. The new NBA economy will result in big $$$ figures, but people need to ignore those and look at % of the cap. The average Joe just hears a dollar figure and thinks it’s absurd, almost as though it’s their money.
And, as was also pointed out and discussed in the context of Tyler Herro (and Austin Reaves!), a deal like this does not preclude the Spurs from adding a max player while Wemby is on his rookie deal or his (assumed) max rookie extension.
Glad to see their confidence in Vassell. I can see him being a key piece out there with Wemby.
He killed it last year. If he hadn't had the meniscus thing, he would have been in the convo for MIP. He's truly a 3 level scorer.Dude must be killing it in practice. Definitely didn't give us a discount
I think they were afraid to let him go into RFA.
I’d rather have Austin Reaves. Cheap ass Jeanie wasn’t matching anything
Pardon my ignorance on this point - does the extension kick in immediately, or next season (since he had one year left on his rookie deal)? This extension basically locks him up for the first 8 or 9 years of his career?
Max rookie extensions are only 4 years though?
Next season.
rookie extensions can now be 5 years, even the non-max ones.
his new deal kicks in during the 24/25 season. he's still under conract for 23/24 season for just under 6 mil. we added 5 new years to it. he's now under contract through the 28-29 season
low effort
needed better timing and execution, and correct comment to respond to, for a reaves troll comment.
Vassell is ten times better than reaves
Vassell said "I ain't letting them see another mediocre year" and signed now. Smart on his part.
Cmon let's keep this as close to facts based homerism as possible.
Vassell is my favorite player on the team. Wemby could take surpass him, but for now it I am huge on Vassell. I was extremely happy when we drafted him and his steady positive progression over the last 3 years.
