After the best NBA season of his career, guard Grayson Allen has reached a multi-year contract extension with the Phoenix Suns.
ESPN reports that the agreement, which was made public on Tuesday, is worth $70 million spread over four seasons.
The 28-year-old Allen led the NBA in 3-point percentage (46.1%) and scored a career-high 13.5 points per game. One of the few reliable players on the squad, he helped All-Stars Devin Booker, Kevin Durant, and Bradley Beal establish themselves by providing steady floor space and long-range shooting.
In the Western Conference playoffs, the sixth-seeded Suns will take on the third-seeded Minnesota Timberwolves.
Allen released a statement saying, “I love being in Phoenix and believe in what we can achieve here.” “I appreciate the organization and Mat Ishbia welcoming me. I’m thrilled to commit to staying in this town and growing with this team for the long run.
In his sixth NBA season, Allen has represented the Milwaukee Bucks, Memphis Grizzlies, and Utah Jazz. Duke was his collegiate basketball team.
