149.8 million in 2 years! The Sun is crazy, do you really want to renew Booker s contract in advance if you pay the maximum salary?

With the Phoenix Suns and the Houston Rockets reaching a 1-for-8 deal to send Kevin Durant away, this means that the three Suns' Big Three officially left the team, and the team's reconstruction will begin immediately! Next, Suns management will do its best to send Bradley Bill away. Because only in this way can they better start the team reconstruction around Devin Booker! Judging from the recent series of operations of the Sun, they do not want to overthrow the complete reconstruction, but rather shorten the reconstruction cycle as much as possible, thereby achieving rapid reconstruction.

In the just-concluded NBA Draft, the Suns used the 10th pick in the first round obtained from the Rockets' trade to select talented center Maluach, and they also traded the Hornets' big man Mark Williams. All signs show that what the Suns want now is to quickly complete the team's reconstruction!

Of course, while the Suns completed the upgrade of their inside lineup through a series of transactions, their top priority this summer must of course reach an early renewal with Devin Booker. In addition to further demonstrating their determination to continue to rebuild around Devin Booker, this also requires a reassurance for Booker. Previously, according to multiple reports, Devin Booker did not want to leave the sun, he wanted to live his life in Phoenix. Therefore, Devin Booker and the Suns reach an early contract renewal this summer will be a two-way trip!

Currently, Booker's contract with the Suns has three years left, of US$170 million, of which 53.14 million will be next season; 57.08 million will be in the 2026-27 season; 61.02 million will be in the 2027-28 season. Logically speaking, with Booker having three years left in the contract, the Suns don’t have to rush to reach an early renewal with Booker, and can make a decision based on the team’s subsequent development. But the reality is that both parties intend to reach an early contract renewal this summer in order to ensure that each other can cooperate for a long time in the future.

According to ESPN famous reporter Brian Windhorst, Phoenix Suns star Devin Booker is expected to sign a huge contract within the next 10 days. According to famous reporter Marc Stein, Devin Booker will be eligible to sign a two-year early maximum salary renewal contract worth $149.8 million from July 7. The outside world generally expects Devin Booker to receive this maximum salary contract.

Frankly speaking, the Phoenix Suns are looking forward to providing Devin Booker with a maximum salary to renew his contract early in such a difficult time in the team's development, which can even be said to be a big bet! Just imagine, if they can’t complete the reconstruction in a short period of time and get the team on track quickly, what’s the point of renewing Devin Booker for a maximum salary? Do you really want Booker, who has the maximum salary, to lead the fish and the sun to continue to struggle every year?

Of course, it is not ruled out that the sun boss Ishbiya is rich and willful. He can completely ignore the team's record and just hope that his first star can play happily in Phoenix! Otherwise, I really can't think of how necessary it is to renew Booker's contract in advance with the Sun's maximum salary. What do you think about this?
