Shams: Dyson Daniels Agrees to 4-yr/$100M Extension with the Atlanta Hawks

[Castle Black]

Young guys getting paid today. And this feels like a steal of a deal for ATL. Congrats to Dyson. Best perimeter defender in the league today and still only 22 years old. His best days are ahead of him.

wow, less than what I expected. Worth it, can fit in any team in the league probably

[Jellybeans]

Damn thats steal for Hawks

[ShootersShoot]

Its crazy a guy like kuminga can try and command over 25 mill when actual legit starters are getting that much.

[EmpireFalls]

That’s a steal, I think he’s better than a lot of guys getting the $25m range

[mkot]

$25M per is a very fair deal for both sides and will be a very valuable trade piece for ANY contending team if Hawks decided to get out of the Trea Young era down the road.

[Chuck Everett]

Good for both sides.

[jowglenn]

A steal for the steal-master

[Bank Shot]

Seems like $25M is the going price for high-level role players.

[LarsV8]

Great deal, I thought he would get 30m.

Maybe got some POs in there.

[GiggitySmalls]

A steal hes the best of the young guns who just got deals in my opinion and hes only getting better. Kids an absolute stud.

edit. wrong thread dammit

And to think 20 Years ago prime Tim Duncan, coming off his 2nd straight MVP, a Championship, and a FMVP, signed a Max Deal that was paying him $17M/year lol. Wild how much the game has grown. Never a better time to be a productive NBA player.

That's already the best contract in the league.

[bstein14]

DPOY level player who is also decent on offense its under market value for sure.

[NO-KG-AI]

Good deal. I thought he was going to get a lot more, but he still has a ways to go offensively.

[DonaldSanders]

Stolen in the trade, then stolen in the extension.

Well played Atlanta!

Is he decent on offense though? He’s a good passer but the outside shot isn’t there. He will have to improve or else he’s Marcus Smart out there.

He netted out to a neutral plus-minus and the lineup data doesn’t bear out him being any better with Trae than Trae was without him.

He's below average on offense for sure but I don't think he's a liability out there like some guys who are defensive specialists.

As a percentage of the cap, these $25 million/year contracts are the equivalent of a $11 million/year contract in 2015-2016
