@@richgreene5038 Jaylen Browns's 2023-24 salary is about $30M, significantly less than Curry's $52M and LeBron's $47M. Curry will have two years remaining, and Brown's salary will be 10% lower than Steph's in those two years. Brown will be a few percent lower than LeBron, but LeBron has a player option for 2024-25 which he may decline to sign a new contract for even more than Steph.
Jaylen Brown is playing the best of his career this season. The only reason it’s the most expensive contract is cuz he just signed it. Every supermax player is going to be paid more than him as soon as they are eligible. I don’t know if you actually watch basketball jaylen brown is an efficient beast on the floor you’re making him seem like a glorified Zach Lavine and he’s not, he’s a monster
He said that JB was a great player but a flawed one. But Embiid has his injuries, Giannis has his shooting, Luka has his defense? JB is greatly contributing to winning basketball right now. He should not be on this list
Browns contract is the future of NBA contracts and for that it gets the worst contract? I Disagree, watch we will see how worst player will soon get same/bigger contracts because that's the future of the NBA, bad take
@@JimmehTruongnow which among these players is JB better than? That's the whole point though. It's not that he is bad but he isn't the franchise guy. I'd say they could have given him something close to what his contract is rather than giving him the most expensive contract in the NBA.
I feel like they kinda had to pay him extra because he was in a lot of trade talks and he was on an affordable contract prior. The C's wanted to show appreciation and loyalty; kinda like what Daryl Morey didn't do to Harden
Jaylen Browns contract is fine. All the All NBA players who extend will have similar or bigger contracts he just happened to be the first to extend with the new cap. In 3 or 4 years his contract will be 10th highest.
The JB slander is ridiculous. He’s a multiple time All Star, and if he didn’t get that contract, Boston would have been decidedly worse AND it likely would have cost them Tatum next year. Please stop…
@@Dizcreti To Boston, he’s worth every penny right now. He’s a homegrown All NBA player that if you didn’t lock him up last year would be a HUGE distraction this year as they’re trying to win a ring. Plus, treating him wrong would potentially have caused issues with Tatum. Next year, Tatum will have a bigger contract, and when the new TV deal kicks in, a whole bunch of people will have bigger contracts.
Jalen Brown contract is very expensive but the Celtics simply had no other option. They could not break this team and due the cap increase, the max salaries are going to look like this going forward. It’s just that Brown was first in line.
@@KH-ou4st I think Jalen Brown is the first to get $60 million a year. I would rather pay him $60 than paying Bradly Beal $50. Beal is definitely overpaid.
Thst brown is on this list. Shame on you hes makeing this 300 million contract look like a bargain. Tatum will get 315 million well worth it too. Lets go celtics.
if the celtics win the chip Jaylens contract is worth every penny and then some. L take when you consider that by the time his contract expires it’ll be small in comparison. Why do people freak out over large contracts like this?
Did you watch those playoff games last year when he disappeared?? Like he usually does in the playoffs? As a Celtics fan I don't like it at all. Him and Tatum need to prove it when it matters. Not in the 82 game regular season
the video is literally about player contracts dummy. No one is denying Brown is good he just aint worth almost $60 mil a year 🤣 good for him for getting that paycheck tho seems like the type of dude thatd do good things with it
I feel like lonzo ball has to be up there. Guy signed a 120m contract over 4 years and has played a grand total of 35 games. EDIT 80M over 4 If he doesnt play in his final year it works out to 3.4m (EDIT 2.3M) per game
Video said "at the moment". At the moment, Lonzo have only one year left. So it's not so bad. And 20M per year still leaves some flexibility. Overall, yes Lonzo situation is grazy one.
I agree hes bascially in the same boat as Ben Simmons in that hes a contract that has no value as he doesn't/cant play. Id say Ben is obviously worst just due to the size, but the other players mentioned in the list have length on their contract which definetly plays a significant role in them being worst than Zo's (Who i think expires after next season?) People just like to give Zo a pass due to injury / Being a nice guy which i sympathise but still consider him probably in the top 10/15 worst contracts
@@Joefdgtrbro his injuries aren’t an excuse he’s literally only out because of that before he got hurt the bulls were a top 5 team and that was primarily due to Lonzo running the floor while also defending teams best scorer 💀Ben Simmons just doesn’t like basketball there’s a difference
@@atsk3281 sorry, my bad I confused his and Gordon Hayward's 4 year contract. Yeah, but say he doesn't play next year would you pay 80m for half a season (not even the back half where it matters). I will admit at 80m it's nowhere near as bad and shouldn't be top 5, but maybe top 20
NBA should really consider "injury contracts" - a regulation that would allow franchises to pay less to a player that's longer on the injury list than some specified amount of time. Because now it's ridiculous: Simmons getting paid almost 40mil for basically nothing
I think they already have that setup - I recall Embiid signed his first extension with a injury ratchet in it. Zion may have something similar too? Although when it comes to negotiating table, given the lack of these non-guaranteed elements, to me it the agents / stars rarely settle with the team on these.
As a suns fan I don’t know why Bradley Beal is even on the team like I’m happy he’s here right now just hope he starts to pick it up. I am starting to lose faith
Jaylen can be all nba and all defense this season he and JT taking lesser roles to win but both playing the best defense of their careers and the record is showing it.
Jaylen Browns contract murdered the future of BOS. There is no way out for them, how are they ever going to trade him? His highest PER rating for a year was < 20!
Jaylen Brown's contract is a product of the system put in place. With the supermax and the timing of the contract, he was the best player who could receive a contract of that magnitude. All of the best players in the league will be getting contracts like this in 2-3 years because that's when there contracts are up. The top 25 players will essentially all be getting paid supermaxs for even more money than Brown so saying its a bad contract isn't really true since that's what teams will have to pay to keep guys like that.
It’s going to cripple small market teams. They’ll be forced to give up a supermax to any guy eligible for it. And you can’t pay three guys a contract like that. Even two seriously hinders your ability to put depth around your roster. As an OKC fan this is going to be a huge problem for us down the road. It’s cruel that the super max still goes against your salary cap. That’s not helping. If the max was say 50 mill and the super was 60 then the 10 million difference shouldn’t go against the cap. That would be a more fair way of doing it because right now small market teams that draft a bunch of stars are basically only renting the majority of them. Eventually they will have to pick two and let the rest go
@@SonnyK248 You're right. The way things are going it looks like teams will eventually only be able to pay 2 stars tops and then have everyone else go to other teams. OKC is one that gets hurt by this more than most. Having the extra money not go against the cap might be an interesting way save the predicament of the direction the league is heading but I think they are hoping for parity.
Your logic on putting Brown on this list means you don't understand how basketball talent valuation, management, trades, and team chemistry works. He is one of the few players on the Celtics who played tough D to will the Celtics back from deficit many times. He leads by example and not by hot hand chucking 3s like Tatum. He sets goals each year to improve himself and he did. Do you see players like Embiid, Giannis Antetokounmpo do that?
Jaylen Brown a Top-25ish player? BS take. Dude is an All-NBA 2nd team who's having a career year in terms of shooting percentage, assists and defensive efficiency. Lately, he's on a tear and has been the C's best player on the floor with Tatum slumping.
Part of the contract parity issue when you mentioned Jaylen B. against other even bigger names is a timing issue. Also, if Jayson Tatum was not on the team, Brown's #'s would most likely be even higher in terms of various key stats. Tatum is a notch above Brown talent wise but again, it gets complicated with both of them on the same team. I think Jaylen is the hungrier of the two to win a title (yes, subjective). If Tatum was not there and we received some solid pieces via his going elsewhere and Brown was the top leader, I could still see a title run regardless as our other pieces we have (White, Holiday, Porzingis to name a few) really are key and in place. If we do not win the title this year, this could be a consideration for change.
How is Jaylen brown flawed? He’s one of the best 2 way players in the league. If he was a #1 on a team without Tatum, he would have numbers proving he’s worth a big contract. Just cuz he “can’t dribble with his left” doesn’t mean he sucks lol
So stupid saying jaylen brown 💀 I love ur content but this doesnt make sense at all. Just because Jaylen Brown was the first to sign a big contract doesnt mean anything. Soon all star players will be paid more than that. Anthony Davis has a more yearly expensive contract extension and he will be a lot older when it even kicks in. Maybe cover that
Biggest contract in NBA history for a guy who may never going get an MVP vote and who is barely above average when looking at most advanced stats? Great at basketball, and definitely overrated.
Jaylen is a good player but they over paid him. They won’t have enough money to keep Jru Holiday and Kristaps Porziņģis especially when they know Jason wants a max too
As a Celtics fan, I know he was overpaid, but what choice did the front office have? Plus, it's not like he's unknown to year round fans and it's not like he sucks (until he dribbles with his left hand).
At this point the nets should consider cutting ben simmons. His career is over once this contract expires, so he has no trade value and no reason to accept a buyout, and the nets are going to suck next year no matter what so you might as well take the hit this year instead of stretch provisioning him. He's also almost certainly not going to play next year, so you can either pay him $40 million to take up a roster spot, or pay him $40 million to go away.
Celtics signed jaylen brown for that because at worse it's a tradeable contract. Prolly more then half the nba would make a bid on him if he was ever available.
Why do people pretend they don’t understand how contracts work when it comes to Jaylen brown contract ? Whoever is the last to sign a super max with the full amount of years they can will Always be the most paid because the cap keeps getting bigger- you’re acting as if they chose to pay him more than the other top players - no he just is the latest to sign. Whoever is next eligible will be the next to have the biggest contract assuming they want the full 5 years
Ill be honest, Jaylen browns contract is very much overpaid but hes definitely has the potential to be worth that contract if he maxes all of his stats or has a breakout season. Im a celtics fan and hes my favourite player in the league but even i questioned the amount hes getting paid
Never understood it. I get it get your money BUT if you truly want a ring and then expect your team to have 3 max contracts and 10-12 minimums it doesn't work (cough, Pheonix, cough) then expect disappointment
are comparing jaylens contract to his dunk contest performance??? thats the only way he should be on this list...hes paid A LOT. but he hooping this year and his team is number 1 in the league
1. Poole deserved his contract at the time handed out too him. Was pivotal in that GSW championship run while being the second best option most nights. GSW was rightfully investing in their future by giving Poole what was rightfully his at the time. Bad on Washington to carry that burden. 2. Jalen Brown is somewhat overpaid, however he does form a formidable backcourt with Tatum and has been pivotal in Celtics recent success. 3. Simmons definitely finessed😂 the system. 4. Beal was unfortunately injury prone. 5. Ravine had a decent run, even sold me.
This is ridiculous. How much does your kid's teacher EARN?! Welcome to the Gladiator 2.0. Y'all just want the glam and the sho. What job would any of these athletes EVER get that would pay just a mil a year?! I'm over it. Go cry to some other rich whiner.
I've got a hot take for you guys. Jordan Poole will rebound either in Washington or somewhere else. He's just better than this. Comeback player of the year candidate in '25 if either the stupid Wizards improve or he somehow lands somewhere else. The offense in Washington relies on him way too much, he is forcing shots and getting tired out, then that affecting his defense. Minutes need to be lessened and another scorer on the court with him. But yea hes better than this. The Simmons and LaVine ones though... yikes.
Hmm, to me a bad contract is one a team wouldn't want to have.. How many teams would turn down Jalen Brown's contract and not have him on their team if they could afford it? Probably none. There are so many players making close to as much with average or worse productivity.
If you think JB contract is bad you just don't understand the NBA. This offseason the Celtics could trade Jaylen for an absolute Haul. If 30 of the ohter teams in the NBA would take Jaylen and his contract on then it's not a bad contract, a bad contract is when no teams want to take it on and it's a negative assett
There are no horrible contracts. Who tf thoughtbit was a good idea to make Jalen Brown the highest paid player in the NBA. Just because they're eligible for the supermax does not mean you have to offer it. Blame the owners.
I hate the Celtics but come on.. Jaylen Brown in the same tier of this bums? Nah man. Clearly you pick a side when you put Brown in there, maybe he destroyed your team. Lost a follower and sub goodbye
Too many folks get caught up on the largest contracts in the league. If you are an All-NBA player on a 64 win team. Your contract is justified. Bad take tbh.
Brown gets too much flak. Dude signed the contract at the absolute perfect time. Pretty soon all elite players are going to be getting paid as much or more than him; he's just the first. And he was a legit All NBA last year and he's still playing at an elite level this year, even if his numbers aren't as high (his efficiency has gone up too).
That horrible contract didn’t stand in the way of the the Suns trading for Beal. They also traded for Durant, who puts up huge number and is one of the best the league has ever seen, but he# also never led a team to a title. Steph, Dray and Klay proved that they win titles with and without Durant. Suns owner setting that team up for a massive rebuild in about two years, and with no draft picks to do it. 😂
How the hell do you put Jaylen Brown in any video with Mid level talent Poole and I only showed up for a kardashian Simmons ( and she cut him ) , I’m out , good luck clip bait boy
At least Brown is playing and always seems to be trying to play. Everyone else on this list, except Poole, wanted to get a bag and then sit out several years. From a talent perspective Poole never should’ve been paid when he’s being paid.
As a Celtics fan i don't understand paying Jaylen that kind of money and making him the highest paid player in the league. That's ridiculous to me. I mean yes he has alot of upside but he's not a real young guy as well. I don't understand why it took that much to sign him
Sometimes i think your a casual lol how is jaylen brown’s contract bad if he is one of the c’s franchise players?not to mention the roster around tatum n brown have gotten deeper so he doesnt have to score or be a threat every night n they bought in players to help with his flaws……also u said it going to hard to build a contender?bro the Celtics been contenders since the 2021-22 season n only have gotten better since then,go actually watch the games n dont go based off his contract bc jb is legit a top 3 second option rn in the nb
Brown isn’t making 57m+ a yr right now the max deal hasn’t kicked in yet and buy the time it does those guys will be making more then him he doesn’t hit 50+m till 2025-26
Anotha biased video per usual lol Jaylen Brown is showing why he’s worth that contract lol & I’m not gone lie since Jordan Poole having a crazy stretch as well, we’ll only really know if they were worth it after the season over
Tell the truth Jaylon was at the right place place at the right time and he is improving daily .He is a top ten player. This is a very misleading video .
Browns contract is horrifying but hey if they win a championship no one will care years from now when it fucks the future up but only if they win one now
Deandre Ayton's contract def worse than Jaylen's
Most def
So, Suns where right when they refused to give him max contract after all!
Dayton should be playing for the vets minimum 😂
I quite the JB hater. But, I think you may correct.
Just tough to say, given talent disparity between best player/s in NBA vs 25-30th.

@@Shortballa11yeah but that’s not the point but yes I do believe we will see better players get a lot more
So stupid saying jaylen brown 💀 I love ur content but this doesnt make sense at all. Just because Jaylen Brown was the first to sign a big contract doesnt mean anything. Soon all star players will be paid more than that. Anthony Davis has a more yearly expensive contract extension and he will be a lot older when it even kicks in. Maybe cover that
Biggest contract in NBA history for a guy who may never going get an MVP vote and who is barely above average when looking at most advanced stats?
Great at basketball, and definitely overrated.
@@Hilltopperpete its not a bad contract the only reason people make a big deal about it is because he was the first to sign a big deal
Jaylen is a good player but they over paid him. They won’t have enough money to keep Jru Holiday and Kristaps Porziņģis especially when they know Jason wants a max too
I think there are bunch of other players who also get overpaid. Tyrese maxey? Lamello? Jb is definitely deserve more than them
drop 41 agianst nuggets, 38 against suns, and 25 in a half against warriors. stop hating on jaylen brown yall just mad you didnt get the contract
As a Celtics fan, I know he was overpaid, but what choice did the front office have? Plus, it's not like he's unknown to year round fans and it's not like he sucks (until he dribbles with his left hand).
Other teams would give Brown that same contract today...which you can't say for the other guys
Brown's contract ain't looking so bad now, is it?
You could argue he deserves it more than Tatum.
Jalen's high no doubt, but they're getting their money's worth.
Number 1
- Lonzo Ball
he's the 71st ranked highest paid player in the league. He gets paid 20.4 million a year to do physical therapy lol.
Jaylen Brown is worth every penny. This content is trash
jalen deserve his contract..he did his best to beat mavs
Couldnt be anymore wrong about JB
At this point the nets should consider cutting ben simmons. His career is over once this contract expires, so he has no trade value and no reason to accept a buyout, and the nets are going to suck next year no matter what so you might as well take the hit this year instead of stretch provisioning him. He's also almost certainly not going to play next year, so you can either pay him $40 million to take up a roster spot, or pay him $40 million to go away.
@hoops reference... What rocks clicked together in your head and made you put Brown on here ?
No wonder one of them reason why all sports basketball baseball and football tv ratings went down hills
Celtics signed jaylen brown for that because at worse it's a tradeable contract. Prolly more then half the nba would make a bid on him if he was ever available.
He's movable but at that contract it won't be half the teams that are interested. A few teams for sure though
NBA globetrotters salary is an illusion
Society actually believe these players are making millions
The comments section is wiiild
Bunch of diva players.
Again. Beal is producing and hes a veteran. Do you even watch basketball ?
Beal getting JUST 18 ppg when hes a 3rd scoring option. Whatever clown....
Jaylen being on here is ridiculous
how is jaylen brown 20ish best player? when he just made the 2nd all nba team 😂😂😂 if you made 2nd team you’re top 8-15 player.
Ever heard of positions? All NBA isn't the best 15 players it's the top 3 players at that position for that year
Tbh Jb contract isn’t even that bad
Brown is the best player on Boston
Why do people pretend they don’t understand how contracts work when it comes to Jaylen brown contract ? Whoever is the last to sign a super max with the full amount of years they can will
Always be the most paid because the cap keeps getting bigger- you’re acting as if they chose to pay him more than the other top players - no he just is the latest to sign. Whoever is next eligible will be the next to have the biggest contract assuming they want the full 5 years
Ill be honest, Jaylen browns contract is very much overpaid but hes definitely has the potential to be worth that contract if he maxes all of his stats or has a breakout season. Im a celtics fan and hes my favourite player in the league but even i questioned the amount hes getting paid
18 a game with Booker and KD isn't bad at all.
Not for the price
Brown is better than tatum
JB’s contract is great
Would love to see a vid about teams/players struggling since the all star break. Hali has been tough to watch after his injury against Boston
barely top 25 for jaylen brown is wild 😭
Jalen is definitely a baller. Why the hate🤷🏿♂️
Still not worth his contract. BOS is in deep shit with such contract just starting...
No honourable mentions? LBJ
Lol ikr
LeBron? If so you are a casual 🤦♂️
@matthewford3778 Yeah bro I am. What you gonna say now?
@@JonatasSabimbi lol
Isn't his contract ending at the end of the season ?
Jaylon is trash
Most underrated bad contract nobody talks about is Cam Johnson's. Almost 100M for an average bench player
Cp3 got a lot of players paid in his career
The Suns front office is pretty dumb. I say this as a Suns fan
@@into_play3226Nets gave Cam that contract. Not the Suns. Cp3 just made him look good on the Suns
He would be worth that on the nuggets doe
As a Pacers fan I am so happy that the suns matched the Pacers offer for Ayton. Major bullet dodged.
Ben getting that good ol disability nba check
Before watching I already know my bulls on here for giving lavine that max contract 😢
If Celtics win a ring I say Jalen shit was well spent 🤷 imo Celtics looking great as the time this vid went up
Tobias Harris snubbed
Never understood it. I get it get your money BUT if you truly want a ring and then expect your team to have 3 max contracts and 10-12 minimums it doesn't work (cough, Pheonix, cough) then expect disappointment
are comparing jaylens contract to his dunk contest performance??? thats the only way he should be on this list...hes paid A LOT. but he hooping this year and his team is number 1 in the league
1. Poole deserved his contract at the time handed out too him. Was pivotal in that GSW championship run while being the second best option most nights. GSW was rightfully investing in their future by giving Poole what was rightfully his at the time. Bad on Washington to carry that burden.
2. Jalen Brown is somewhat overpaid, however he does form a formidable backcourt with Tatum and has been pivotal in Celtics recent success.
3. Simmons definitely finessed😂 the system.
4. Beal was unfortunately injury prone.
5. Ravine had a decent run, even sold me.
Bradley Beal, Tobias Harris, Damian Lillard, Fred VanVleet, Zion Williamson, Darius Garland
U need to take Jaylen brown off this list.
East conference finals MVP & about to be a NBA Champion (1 game away)
Only 10 months into his big contract
This is ridiculous.
How much does your kid's teacher EARN?!
Welcome to the Gladiator 2.0.
Y'all just want the glam and the sho.
What job would any of these athletes EVER get that would pay just a mil a year?!
I'm over it. Go cry to some other rich whiner.
I've got a hot take for you guys. Jordan Poole will rebound either in Washington or somewhere else. He's just better than this. Comeback player of the year candidate in '25 if either the stupid Wizards improve or he somehow lands somewhere else. The offense in Washington relies on him way too much, he is forcing shots and getting tired out, then that affecting his defense. Minutes need to be lessened and another scorer on the court with him. But yea hes better than this. The Simmons and LaVine ones though... yikes.
Why haven't anyone talked about a man almost twice his size punching him in the face. He needs to suit the NBA and Green. Talking about Jordan Poole.
Hmm, to me a bad contract is one a team wouldn't want to have.. How many teams would turn down Jalen Brown's contract and not have him on their team if they could afford it? Probably none. There are so many players making close to as much with average or worse productivity.
Stupid to put Jaylen on the list. It’s a matter of timing. Remember when Conley was highest paid in the NBA? You aren’t taking into proper context.
If you think JB contract is bad you just don't understand the NBA. This offseason the Celtics could trade Jaylen for an absolute Haul. If 30 of the ohter teams in the NBA would take Jaylen and his contract on then it's not a bad contract, a bad contract is when no teams want to take it on and it's a negative assett
Jaylens is bad. OK. Won 60 games already. And avgs 23 a game despite having jt kp dwhite and jrue on the team. He's worth every penny.
There are no horrible contracts. Who tf thoughtbit was a good idea to make Jalen Brown the highest paid player in the NBA. Just because they're eligible for the supermax does not mean you have to offer it. Blame the owners.
I hate the Celtics but come on.. Jaylen Brown in the same tier of this bums? Nah man. Clearly you pick a side when you put Brown in there, maybe he destroyed your team. Lost a follower and sub goodbye
Wait wait wait wait wait. You just casually dropped that he was a 2nd Team All member but somehow he’s supposed to be alongside these bums? 🤡🤡🤡
Too many folks get caught up on the largest contracts in the league. If you are an All-NBA player on a 64 win team. Your contract is justified. Bad take tbh.
Brown gets too much flak. Dude signed the contract at the absolute perfect time. Pretty soon all elite players are going to be getting paid as much or more than him; he's just the first. And he was a legit All NBA last year and he's still playing at an elite level this year, even if his numbers aren't as high (his efficiency has gone up too).
That horrible contract didn’t stand in the way of the the Suns trading for Beal. They also traded for Durant, who puts up huge number and is one of the best the league has ever seen, but he# also never led a team to a title. Steph, Dray and Klay proved that they win titles with and without Durant. Suns owner setting that team up for a massive rebuild in about two years, and with no draft picks to do it. 😂
How the hell do you put Jaylen Brown in any video with Mid level talent Poole and I only showed up for a kardashian Simmons ( and she cut him ) , I’m out , good luck clip bait boy
At least Brown is playing and always seems to be trying to play. Everyone else on this list, except Poole, wanted to get a bag and then sit out several years. From a talent perspective Poole never should’ve been paid when he’s being paid.
As a Celtics fan i don't understand paying Jaylen that kind of money and making him the highest paid player in the league. That's ridiculous to me. I mean yes he has alot of upside but he's not a real young guy as well. I don't understand why it took that much to sign him
Sometimes i think your a casual lol how is jaylen brown’s contract bad if he is one of the c’s franchise players?not to mention the roster around tatum n brown have gotten deeper so he doesnt have to score or be a threat every night n they bought in players to help with his flaws……also u said it going to hard to build a contender?bro the Celtics been contenders since the 2021-22 season n only have gotten better since then,go actually watch the games n dont go based off his contract bc jb is legit a top 3 second option rn in the nb
Brown isn’t making 57m+ a yr right now the max deal hasn’t kicked in yet and buy the time it does those guys will be making more then him he doesn’t hit 50+m till 2025-26
Ahh yes JB the guy who just dropped 41 points against the defending champs is a bad contract. FOH
Jaylen is a pillar of the Celtics. Celtics need brown and tatum together. video is stupid AF.
How could you put 33 year olds Damian Lillard and Paul george after 27 year old JB? Jimmy Butler?
Anotha biased video per usual lol Jaylen Brown is showing why he’s worth that contract lol & I’m not gone lie since Jordan Poole having a crazy stretch as well, we’ll only really know if they were worth it after the season over
Simmons may be the worst contract in NBA history. Good for him, hope he gets healthy, but its just the reality.
Darius Garland should be on this list
I wouldn't say Jalen Brown's contract is the worst. He's game is there, just needed some push.
Tell the truth Jaylon was at the right place place at the right time and he is improving daily .He is a top ten player. This is a very misleading video .
Jaylen Brown clears Deandre Ayton lmfao legit completely skipped over that part of the video
Browns contract is horrifying but hey if they win a championship no one will care years from now when it fucks the future up but only if they win one now
Now tell us JB's contract aint worth it.. 😂 put respect to this guy's name.
Klay Thomson should be on this list
