The Oklahoma City Thunder have exercised their third-year options on Josh Giddey and Tre Mann, as well as Aleksej Pokusevski’s fourth-year option, the club announced recently.
Chosen by the Thunder for the sixth overall pick of the 2021 NBA Draft, Giddey will earn a guaranteed $6.58MM in the 2023-24 campaign. The Aussie sensation averaged 12.5 points, 7.8 rebounds and 6.4 assists in 54 games last year, gaining All-Rookie Second Team honors.
Mann, who has been a serviceable swingman for OKC in his rookie year upon averaging 10.4 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 1.5 assists, will be locked with the team also in 23-24 and set to earn $3.19MM.
Meanwhile, Pokusevski will gain $5MM in his fourth year and is slated to become extension-eligible following that. He averaged 7.6 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 2.1 assists last season.
