According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, two young stars are getting a contract extension which will pay them near or more than $100 million.

The Boston Celtics have agreed with Jaylen Brown to a four-year, $115 million extension.

After making the All-Rookie team during the 2016-17 season, Brown showed growth in his second year, averaging 14.5 points and 4.9 rebounds per game. Those figures fell to 13 points and 4.2 rebounds per game last season.

Sacramento Kings guard Buddy Hield has also agreed to a four-year, $94 million contract extension.

The deal includes $86 million in guaranteed money, $8 million in exceedingly reachable bonuses and another $12 million in incentives that could elevate the deal to $106 million over its term, league sources said.

This deal allows the Kings and Hield to avoid restricted free agency next summer.
