    Expectations increased with that contract imo.
    that's the most important point, spurs send a message to Devin. We believe in you, now take the next step and become that second banana.

    Cmon let's keep this as close to facts based homerism as possible.
    Ok twice as better, reaves is having a run like Jeremy
    lin he’s not that what they make him to be , vassell can be Middleton and is part of a championship team reaves can’t be a number two

    Yeah so that's actually 5/135M minimum. Would have to know the nature of the bonuses.

    Vassell on contract extension: “Just know I wanna be a Spur for a long time”
    Just a hunch, but I think we will see this sentiment from a lot of current Spurs who want to be part of the Wemby future with the Spurs. Wemby's presence is going to make a lot of contracts easier to negotiate.

    With that kind of deal, the Spurs are betting on him hard. We have our #2 player or our Manu now, boys and girls. That’s unless someone else blows up during this timeline and earns an even higher payday.

    Seems like they overpaid ...

    but maybe he will over- over achieve?

    if you take last year's offense but his defensive effort from his first 2 seasons... thats already worth tbh (assuming he's on the court)

    Bane contract set the market. Good news is they are not worried about the knee.

    I like this deal. I like the way the FO is looking forward here. On the Austin Reaves comments I've seen here, and I'm very high on Reaves, he's not nearly as good as Devin can be. So let's that comparison go... I do like the Bane comps much better and I'd much rather have Devin at this number than Bane at his.

    I think this team is going to outperform expectations this year.

    Here's hoping his growth rate continues.

    Becoming a GNob is a tall task.

    I expected it to be in $120M region, but it's fine considering our cap situation.
    I really expect him to become a borderline all-star this season.

    Nice. Think this is a “fair” deal even if he doesn’t develop further, but based on what we’ve seen in spurts I think he has the potential to develop into the type of player that makes this a great deal for us.

    Maybe more than anything it’s just exciting to see that the FO believes in him enough to give him this sort of deal. Hate to be the appeal to authority type but I trust them enough to know that they wouldn’t be doing this if they didn’t see some serious potential.

    if the cap rises to $170m, he’s at about 17% of the cap

    others making around 17% this year:

    Wiggins, Simons, Barrett, Clarkson, Rozier, Brooks, Brogdon, Draymond, Aaron Gordon, Bruce Brown


    depending on how you feel about Draymond, i think Vassell is better than all of them


    and if he is just “okay” under this deal, it’s a pretty moveable contract by the end of it
    clarkson who?

    Jordan Clarkson has agreed to a three-year, $55 million contract extension to remain with the Utah Jazz, according to The Athletic's Shams
    Also, Dillon Brooks signed a reported four-year, $80 million deal with the Houston Rockets on July 8

    From among the list, Wiggins and Gordon are legit champ contributors though worse than number 2 guys. I wouldn't say yet Devin is better but we like our own. I would have liked 4 / $100 but 5 / $135 is only about $2 per year overpay plus the extra fifth year.

    Say nothing of the fact Devon is 2.5 years younger.

    Great deal. Super happy for Devon. One of my favorite Spurs.

    Nice that there is no 5th year player option like so many 5 year deals have. It could indicate that it is front end loaded or flat.

    This is 4 years past the new tv deal. First non max rookie 5 year extension. I thought he would get 25 easy, +2 mil per for an extra 5th year is a bargain.

    Happy for this guy. I’m sure he was beasting it in practice, and Pop commented how so different Devin is now as far as getting stronger, demanding the ball. I really think Devin will be Spurs leading scorer next season, and possibly 1st option while they transition Wemby to NBA. Keldon feeling the pressure to match the production. Those 3 will be Spurs 1st 3 options. I can’t wait.

    No options is handy to have. He is locked in. Also on another note, I think he'll be defending pgs this season and Sochan will be the starting pg. I feel vassell struggles defending sfs and large 2s. Just my observations.

    I’m not mad at this. Not everyone takes a team discount but he better start consistently playing on the other side of the ball to justify this.
