As Adrian Wojnarowski – who else? – reported Danilo Gallinari and the Denver Nuggets are near a two-year extension which will pay him an additional 34 millions US dollars.
The Italian forward under the new deal will stay at least until the summer of 2017 in Denver, he will get a 2,5 million raise in his 11.5 million salary for next season (14 m.), 15,5 millions in 2016-17 and he has a player option for 16.1 million in the 2017-18 season.
Under the new CBA rules, Gallinari three years after signing his contract is eligible for that kind of an extension.
