Boston Celtics, Jayson Tatum towards the richest contract ever: unbelievable numbers

The Boston Celtics, led by the duo of Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum, graduated as the 2024 NBA champions after defeating the Dallas Mavericks 4-1. According to reports from ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, the franchise is reportedly leaning toward offering Tatum a super-max contract to renew the superstar on a five-year deal. The number is monstrous: $315 million for five years, which equates to $63 million per year. If the deal goes through, Tatum would become the highest-paid player in NBA history.
