Booker will receive early contract renewal from Suns

According to US media reports, Suns boss Booker is expected to sign a huge contract within the next 10 days.

Book's current contract will expire in 2028. His salary in the 2024-25 season was US$49.21 million, and his next three seasons were US$53.14 million, US$57.08 million and US$61.02 million, respectively, with a total contract amount of more than US$170 million in three years.

According to US media reports, Booker is eligible for a two-year, $149.8 million early renewal contract starting from July 7, and Booker is expected to receive this maximum salary contract.

According to US media reports, Booker does not want to leave the sun, he hopes to live his life in Phoenix. Booker has been playing in the Suns for 10 years as the No. 13 show in 2015.

In the past season, Booker played for the Suns in a total of 75 regular season games, averaging 25.6 points, snatched 4.1 rebounds and 7.1 assists. His shooting percentage is 46.1%, his three-point shooting percentage is 33.2%, and his free throw shooting percentage is 89.4%.

Then why did Booker live to the sun? There may be several reasons.

The first reason is to make more money. According to the league rules, if a player stays on the same team long enough, he can get more salary.

So Booker stays in the Suns and will get more wages, which is a huge salary that other teams cannot get. You should know that not every team can give Booker $140 million in two years.

This is one of the main reasons why one person and one city are very important. It not only shows that a player is very loyal, but more importantly, it is also very considerable in terms of salary returns!

The second reason is that you can continue to be the boss. Durant has gone away from the Rockets, and Bill has begun to play badly. Green, who came from the Rockets, was too young to be of great use. So Booker can keep the sun and continue to be the boss.

But if Booker wants to leave the sun, he will probably not be the boss. After all, when he goes to another team, he may only be able to play support. Being the second or even the third, he will definitely not feel comfortable being the boss in the Suns.

It seems that Booker is ready to make a mess! The Suns have no hope. They will probably play badly and compete for the No. 1 pick next season. Is this the reason?
