The San Antonio Spurs and LaMarcus Aldridge are engaged in contract extension discussions, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Aldridge has $21.4 million remaining on his contract. He can exercise an opt-out option in his contract for the 2018-19 season and become a free agent. A deal before midnight would allow him to opt-in at $22 million and extend his contract three years, according to Wojnarowski. A max offer would be 120% of either his 2017-18 or 2018-19 salary, according to ESPN's Bobby Marks.
Aldridge is coming off a season in which he averaged 17.3 points, 7.
