Contract extension for Domantas Sabonis relieves pressure on double-center pairing

The Indiana Pacers have reached agreement with Domantas Sabonis on a four-year $74.9 million contract to keep their herd of home-blossomed centers together, at least for the time being, reports The Athletic’s Shams Charania. Per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the deal could be worth as much as $85 million with bonuses.

After rumors circulated over the weekend that the two sides were “far apart” in negotiations, with Sabonis going so far as to publicly voice his displeasure with the team’s valuation of him, this is arguably the best possible outcome.
