The biggest deal of the NBA’s offseason was completed Tuesday morning. Jaylen Brown just signed the richest deal in NBA history, inking a reported five-year, $304 million deal to stick with the Boston Celtics.
The supermax is indeed a supermax. And Boston, despite the changes the team made this offseason, is still all-in on trying to win a championship. And that means the team cannot afford to let its star players leave in free agency or not feel taken care of.
Even if that means paying $69 million in the last year of the deal.
