🚨 JALEN BRUNSON TAKES $113 MM DISCOUNT On New Contract Extension | New York Knicks News

[Music] we’ve got breaking news as Jaylen Brunson has put pen to paper and is signing a massive contract extension to stay with the New York Knicks but he’s taking a even bigger discount he’s signing a deal for 4 years and $156 million but he is leaving $13 million on the table he is taking a major discount and I think you could make the argument this is the biggest Hometown discount any athlete and professional America Sports has ever taken and he’s doing so to stay with the New York Knicks hit that thumbs up icon subscribe to the channel and type those 11s for me down in the comment section before we talk about this I got to give a huge shout out to my guys over at Big Nick energy and awesome follow on Twitter they’ve always done good by me those are my guys over there and as you see the date July 11th yesterday they tweeted out per League sources Jaylen Brunson will sign a 4-year [Applause] 165.540 they’re good guys and they’ve got the scoop man woe this the repercussions of Brunson choosing the 4-year 56.5 million max deal over the 5year $269 million deal in 2025 are massive for the Nick’s ability to keep this team together and keep making roster moves to close the gap on a championship the deal which will cost Brunson 30 $7.1 million over the next three years comes with a fourth-year player option Leon Rose said and that would set up Brunson to recoup the rest of the $113 million on a four-year 4year $323 million extension in 2028 or a new fiveyear $418 million deal in 2029 so while he took a pay cut now he’s going to see that bread one day and he is going to be a very very rich man you look at really the overall breakdown of this deal he’ll be making $ 34.9 million in 2025 in 2026 and 2627 it’s $ 37.7 million then up to $40.5 million then he has a player option in 2028 2029 for $ 43.3 million totaling if Brunson waited until the summer of 2025 to sign an extension he would have made $269 million compared to 156 and you see the numbers on screen what does it mean for the New York Knicks the cap savings with Brunson taking the extension now compared to him waiting eight months till next summer the niick save $1.45 million in 2025 $1.3 million in 2026 13 .2 million in 2027 and overall $37 million over the next four seasons the next contract Brunson will have 10 years in 2028 2029 he is eligible to sign a 4-year $323 million extension in the 2027 offseason you know what the craziest part about that is that once again would be a major discount and I could see him signing another extension to help out for the New York Knicks in the video yesterday where we told you Brunson was going to sign a contract extension today via the report from Big Nick energy I said build him a statue I said if he signs this contract start building the statue and Josh Hart goes to Twitter and says build him a statue I need everybody in the comments right now to just type those 11s type your JBS type your Els show some appreciation to an athlete that I will say when he retires will be looked at in a trio of New York Sports greates that feature Derek Jeter and Eli Manning it’ll be Jeter it’ll be Eli and it’ll be Jaylen Brunson he’ll need a ring but what he did today helps him get there it’s incredible that Jaylen Brunson is leaving $113 million on the table it is it’s a whole lot of money and some of the real financials here if he would have made all MBA this coming year he could have signed a 5year $314 million deal which means he’s sacrificing like $158 million the average annual value on the extension the one he signed now $ 39.1 million if he waited till this summer it was $538 Million he’s sacrificing $14 million a year and if he was all NBA and he waited he would making $ 62.9 million per year this extension makes Jaylen Brunson the 37th highest paid player in the NBA when Brunson signed that deal a couple of summers ago to come from the Mavericks to the Knicks we told you he was underpaid while everyone else told you he was overpaid then 12 months later everybody Under the Sun said he was the most underpaid best contract in the NBA and once again he is on the best contract in the NBA I’m stunned I am stunned I’ve never had anyone do anything this nice for me in my life ever ever this is probably what Jaylen Brunson told Leon Rose if you give me Josh Hart and you get me Dante Devan chenzo and you go all in for Mel Bridges and you promis to bring back Ryan arch diako for the third time I’ll take the discount that’s what he probably said and it happened on a more serious note a lot of players say winning is all that matters all I want to do is win I’ll do whatever it takes to win very few actually mean it and I’ve only seen now two athletes in my 29 years of existence put the team success over the numbers in their bank account to this degree and it’s Tom Brady and it’s Jaylen Brunson Adrien wowski says this on the extension brunson’s study of Championship organizations and franchise Stars Patrick Mahomes Kansas City chief the Tom Brady New England Patriots and the Derek Jeter New York Yankees gave him a blueprint for MVP level players who restructured contracts to give their teams the best chance at sustainable title runs I get chills reading that like I have Goosebumps right now the hair on my arms is sticking up I’m not sure we deserve Jaylen Brunson I’ve done some bad in my life I’m not sure I deserve something like this but what I will say to Jaylen Brunson is thank you thank you for saving New York Knicks basketball and thank you for taking the New York Knicks at a point guard hell where we had to look at Chris Duhan and Raymond Felton and Tony Douglas and Pablo Pion as the point guards of this team then guys like Shane Lin and Jose Calderone and Derrick Rose and ront sessions can’t forget Trey Burke or Alonzo Trier definitely not alred pyton or kemell Walker you can’t forget about them somehow someway every single time Jaylen Brunson is overd delivered he’s overd delivered he was better than we thought he’d be in 2023 then he comes back his next season and he UPS the Annie he’s better every single way and then in the playoffs that’s where players are determined that’s where legacies are made that’s where you talk about Legends in his first playoff series he averaged 24 points per game and he beat the higher seed of Cleveland Cavaliers in five games then he goes on the road unfortunately loses the Miami Heat but he averaged 31.6 assists five rebounds and shot 50% for the deck and 35% from downtown and then you know what he does the next year in the playoffs he gets even better he gave the Philadelphia 76ers 35.5 points per night with nine dimes then against the Indiana Pacers against the team they got lucky cuz the Knicks got healthy he gave his all he did everything he can giving you 30 points per game and six assists we are not worthy we as Nicks fans are not worried show Jaylen Brunson some love one more time I want to see every single person that watched today’s video show some love and show some thanks type those 11s in the comment section and I better see someone start building that statue and I promise you this nobody ever will wear number 11 again in a new New York Knicks uniform it will be in the rafters hopefully right next to a banner that says the New York Knicks are NBA champions once again make sure you are following me on social media I’m on Twitter I’m on IG hit me up over there and let’s go Nicks and Jaylen Brunson we appreciate you my guy [Music]
