Desmond Bane – **Prediction:** Five years, $207,350,000 (25% of the cap), no options
Pretty wild that the #1 pick and the #30 pick will likely get the same type of contract. Grand slam of a pick you could say.

If you can get it so he does not want the fifth-year player option I think they should do it. If you get slightly under that then go for it but I don’t see why Bane would want that.
The +EV of the Bane contract between signing him to a max now or matching next year doesn’t seem any different. He’ll almost certainly get a max offer next year.
Bane is going to get a deal closer to JJJ than that.
Probably $130 – 150 million. I don’t think Bane would get an max offer as a restricted free agent.
Don’t think Bane should be the highest paid on the team
