Luka Doncic, Nikola Jokic among 2025 extension candidates

Several star veterans will be eligible for contract extensions in the 2025 NBA offseason, with recent CBA changes making extensions more lucrative before free agency.

Notable eligible players include:

Luka Doncic, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Trae Young, Nikola Jokic, De’Aaron Fox, Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, Karl-Anthony Towns, Ja Morant, Darius Garland, Tyler Herro, Kristaps Porzingis, and Jaren Jackson Jr.

Jokic, Booker, and Towns, who signed supermax deals in 2022, can decline their $62.8M player options for 2027-28 to sign a three-year, $212M extension.

Gilgeous-Alexander is eligible for a four-year, $293M supermax, while Fox can sign a four-year, $229M deal with the Spurs starting August 3rd.

Doncic, ineligible for a supermax after being traded to the Lakers, can sign a five-year, $229M extension or a three-year, $165M deal with a player option for 2028-29, aligning with his 10-year service max.

He becomes extension-eligible on August 2nd.
