  1. Good for him! And it matters less for us now given our direction. Let’s hope it’s descending so it becomes more valuable on the trade market in the future

  2. Dear god I hope they front loaded the contract to make it even more valuable to trade

    Happy for Clax

  3. Let’s goooo! Only thing I ask is for him to develop a jumpshot, since we’re rebuilding, I’d like for him to experiment

  4. Welcome back, Clax.

    I hope it’s a descending, front-loaded deal. He could make $30m in year 1 for all I care.

  5. Slight overpay but this is great for us. Hopefully stays for the ride but can be flipped next season if needed.

  6. We have cap space and that number makes him a nice tradable contract when the time comes. I get a little teary eyed thinking we will probably never get to see Claxton go far in the playoffs for our team. Before he reached his full potential because our big three were a bunch of bitches and the Twins are role players.

  7. Very happy to see this. The Clax/Clowney duo looked like it could be something special towards the tale end of the season but there just wasn’t enough time to see how good they could be together. Worse comes to worse, he’s a tradeable asset in the future but still, glad he’s here for now. Now it’s time to flip DFS/Cam for a pick in the draft.

  8. Sounds good to me, welcome back king

    Gotta think Claxton is definitely more than 50% of the player OG is, so it should be fair value.

  9. Ideally this contract is front loaded so when that 2025 free agent class comes around we can hopefully have room to sign a high level player after drafting Flagg, Bailey or Harper. Overall though this changes nothing in terms of winning this season or next, just happy to have the big guy back TBH.

  10. Our franchise center, hopefully he stays long enough for us to be competitive again. Need to see him taking 3s next season

  11. I want to see him taking multiple jumpers every game next season, i know he has it in him

  12. Awesome, we need a semi veteran presence in the locker room I see no downside here, he won’t stop us from losing, makes Sharpe expendable, will be tradeable later, could be a lifetime Net, all good things

  13. I’m surprised he decide to stick around for a rebuild team.
    Knowing we have to pay someone, I guess this isn’t a bad deal….

    Congrats to Claxton and his Family

  14. Let’s goo. Our boy gets his pay day. It’s been a good week. Always cool to see our home grown guys improving and staying

  15. GOOD. I don’t know how likely it is, but I’d love to see him play his whole career here. Was never in doubt that he’d re-sign, but still, glad Marks got it done. Offseason off to a great start for us

  16. We just retained a DPOY caliber center for half the cost of OG’s new deal. Massive Marks W.
