The Phoenix Suns are reportedly doubling down with Devin Booker while retooling this offseason.
Booker and the Suns agreed to a two-year, $145 million maximum extension that is set to keep the star in Phoenix through the 2029-30 season, ESPN’s Shams Charania reported Wednesday.
It is the highest annual extension salary in the history of the league.
Booker played the 2024-25 season on the first year of the four-year, $224 million supermax extension he signed with the Suns in 2022. His previous deal locked him in through the 2027-28 season.
The new contract shows the Suns’ commitment to building around their homegrown star even after Booker, Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal fell short of the playoffs in 2025.
Despite setting an NBA record for the highest payroll in league history, the Suns missed out on the postseason and fired head coach Mike Budenholzer this spring.
The Suns then traded Durant to the Houston Rockets. Phoenix received Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, the ability to draft Khaman Maluach and five second-round picks in return for Durant to start the process of rebuilding around Booker.
Booker has played 10 seasons for the Suns since the franchise selected him with the No. 13 pick of the 2015 draft. He holds the all-time franchise lead in career points (16,452) and three-pointers made (1,424.)
Despite an All-Star snub in 2024-25, Booker averaged more than 25 points per game for a seventh straight season with the Suns.
He shot 46.1 percent from the field and 33.2 percent from deep while leading the Suns with 7.1 assists per contest and adding 0.9 steals per game.
Whatever direction Phoenix decides to take with the rest of their roster this offseason, Booker could look get back in the All-Star conversation by leading his team back into postseason contention next spring.
