The offseason saga around Pascal Siakam has a new twist as the NBA has REVEALED what the player could be eligible to receive with a supermax contract. The saga started with the Toronto Raptors seemingly wanting to trade Pascal Siakam after analyzing the constraint surrounding his contract and the threat of the player walking away from the team for nothing in the 2024 off-season. The ability to trade Siakam was deterred by the player making it clear he will not be signing a contract with any team who trades for him. As a result, the Raptors were left with lackluster offers and despite interest from the Atlanta Hawks were potentially forced into keeping him.
Things took a big change this week, however, when reports revealed the possibility of Siakam signing an extension in THIS offseason, where he is eligible for a 4-year $192 million figure. Whatever your stance is on the player, it would be great news if Masai Ujiri could lock down the two-time all-star at this number but things could take a twist with the figure he could receive if he makes an All-NBA appearance this season, and it is even more than what Jaylen Brown got..
