The San Antonio Spurs‘ initial agreement with soon-to-be 34-year-old forward DeMarre Carroll was reported to be a two-year deal worth $13 million.
However, Adrian Wojnarowski reported today that the Spurs and Carroll’s agent Mark Bartelstein have agreed to a new three-year deal worth $21 million.
Not only was Bartelstein able to add a year onto the contract of an aging veteran in his mid-30’s, the average annual salary will also get a slight bump in this new framework of the contract.
Spurs fans have to be a little confused why the front office would make this sort of deal.
