DeMar DeRozan and the San Antonio Spurs have continued to discuss a contract extension, but a source tells Sam Amick of The Athletic that the two sides remain far apart on terms.
DeRozan has a player option for the 20-21 season at $27.7 million. A max extension for DeRozan at this time would be worth $150 million over four seasons.
DeRozan was traded to the Spurs by the Toronto Raptors during the 2018 offseason.
