Victor Wembanyama has signed what will be the richest contract in Spurs history, a five-year extension that could exceed $250 million if the player option in the final season is picked up, a person with knowledge of the negotiations said Friday.<\/span><\/p>\n

The person spoke on condition of anonymity to The Associated Press because the financial figures were not disclosed by either side. The Spurs, who went to the NBA Finals this past season behind the All-NBA center and unanimous Defensive Player of the Year, announced that Wembanyama had signed, simply saying the sides agreed on \u201ca multi-year contract extension.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The agreement comes at a discount; Wembanyama could have agreed to a deal that would have topped $300 million over five years \u2014 but chose a lesser amount to help give the Spurs flexibility going forward with their young core and in anticipation of the contracts some of those budding stars will be eligible for in coming years, the person said.<\/span><\/p>\n
