Man, rookie extensions are out of control lol.
His max extension is 5/227 if he doesn't make all nba and 5/270 if he does.

His max extension is 2/229 if he doesn't make all nba and 5/270 if he does.
I'm assuming you mean 5/229 and not 2/229?

Barnes is overrated. He lacks the shot making and shot creation skills to be a premier offensive weapon. This is WAY too much money for him

Lol, sure.
Barnes is Top 5 Level Potential Prospect.
Blue Chip as it gets.
WTF are you talking about
Do you know how long we Raptor fans had dreamt for a Prospect that would be an all star in year 3??
Forever....

they should've just waived him. i'd much rather watch cap space play.

This is the going rate for good young players with allstar potential.
Lamelo Ball, Darius Garland signed max deals
Devin Vassell, Desmond Bane signed near max deals

It's actually 5/225 (well $224,895,000 to be precise and that number is actually just a projection). Still a ton of money either way.
Spotrac is on top of their game:
https://www.spotrac.com/nba/player/_/id/74111/scottie-barnesHow do you guys feel about these deals being announced so early (Not that this one was any sort of surprise)? in past years I don't recall them being announce ahead of the free agent window opening. We have 3 so far - Siakim, Monk & Barnes.

I know I'm a Raps fan and to those who don't know me on here this'll come off as a homer-type post, but it's posts like these that make me go, "Why don't we have a downvote button?"

He earned it I guess. Rookie of the year his first year in the league and an all-star last season. Too bad the team stinks and they don't have their own draft pick this year. Need to do something in free agency to get better.

That's a lot of cheddar but that's what it takes to keep young potential superstars.
Congrats to both sides.
