Timberwolves Extend Rudy Gobert with 3-Year, $110M Deal

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert has agreed to a three-year, $110 million contract extension, according to Shams Charania.

The new deal was finalized shortly before Minnesota’s game against the Los Angeles Lakers, securing the four-time Defensive Player of the Year for the team.

Gobert declined his $46.6 million player option for the 2025-26 season, opting for a longer-term contract that gives the Timberwolves more salary cap flexibility. The contract also includes a player option for 2027-28 and a trade kicker.
