Detailed explanation of the Thunder s maximum salary renewal of Homgren: far exceeds the amount of the Rockets contract renewal of Shen Jing Xiaojia, which has a big hidden danger

Basketball

Now the Thunder renewed the contract with a rookie of $239 million, with a maximum salary contract of $250 million, which has somewhat aroused doubts from the outside world.

When Thunder previously renewed Alexander's contract with a super maximum salary of US$285 million in four years, there was no doubt in the outside world. After all, he deserves this super contract with the highest average salary in history. Alexander has played an epic season in the past season. He led the Thunder to win the first place in the league and set a record in team history. He led the team to pass the game in the playoffs and won the second championship in team history after 46 years. Alexander won three MVPs in the regular season, the Western Conference Finals and the Finals, and also won the honors of points, the best team first team, and the All-Star starter.

Homgren's existing contract has a contract of $13.73 million in one year. After his new contract takes effect in 2026, the specific annual salary details are as follows:

Year 1: US$41.25 million

Year 2: US$44.55 million

Year 3: US$47.85 million

Year 4: US$51.15 million

Year 54.45 million

Homgren is one of the important cores of the Thunder's three young masters. He played 32 games in the regular season last season, averaging 27.3 minutes per game, able to contribute 15 points, 8 rebounds, 2 assists and 2.2 blocks, and his three shooting percentages are 49%, 37.9%, and 75.4%. In the playoffs, Homegrenchet played 23 games, averaging 15.2 points, 8.7 rebounds, 1 assist and 1.9 blocks per game in 29.8 minutes, with a shooting percentage of 46.2%, 29.7%, and 78.4% in three events.

Although Homgren is extremely important for the Thunder to win the championship, his data last season was only 15+8 per game, so it is still questionable that he can get such a maximum salary. Compared with the five-year contract renewal of the No. 1 pick of the same season, Ban Keiro's contract with a total of $239 million (up to $287 million), Ban Keiro's data last season was 25.9 points, 7.5 rebounds and 4.8 assists per game in the regular season, and 29.4 points, 8.4 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game in the playoffs. There is undoubtedly a big gap in Homegren.

is just the first three seasons of Homgren's career so far. He only played 114 games in the regular season, and averaged 38 games per season. Although Homegren maintained full attendance in 82 games in his second season, he was reimbursed for one game due to injury in the rookie season and missed another 50 games last season. As a tall 2.16-meter-long Holmgren, he was considered a "glass man" in the first three years of his career. There are still considerable risks of giving him such a maximum salary renewal.

What's more, among the top three contract renewals in the 2022 draft, they are Ben Keiro (5 years, $239 million in advance renewal, up to $287 million), Homgren (5 years, $239 million in renewal, up to $250 million), and Jabbarri Smith Jr. (5 years, $122 million in advance renewal). It is not difficult to see that No. 1 pick, Kairo and No. 2 pick, both got maximum salary contracts, but Jabbarry Smith, Jr., is more than $100 million less than them, which is very cost-effective. Homgren and Jabbarry Smith, Jr., are not the top two stars of the team. Even the Rockets renewed Shen Jing's contract, it only lasted 5 years and $185 million, which is much cheaper than Homegren.
