Reeves can sign a five-year, $240 million deal next summer! Nick Young: The Lakers won’t give him anything, he can’t be the team boss

recently participated in Arenas’ podcast “Gil’s Arena"", former Lakers player Nick Young talked about Reeves' contract extension prospects.
According to previous reports, Reeves will reject the player option next summer and jump out of the contract to become a free agent. At that time, he can get a maximum salary contract with a starting salary of 25% of the salary cap, and the starting salary is about 41.37 million. Since the Lakers have Reeves' bird rights, they can provide Reeves with a maximum salary contract of up to 240 million for five years. If Reeves signs a maximum salary contract with another team, the maximum salary is 178 million for four years.
Reeves's contract this season is 13.9 million. According to previous reports, due to rule restrictions, the Lakers can only offer a maximum of 89.2 million US dollars for four years.
Arenas said: "If he is selected for the All-Star or the All-NBA Team, the Lakers may still be able to accept this offer. What is being discussed now is a real second-in-command, which is a negotiation threshold. "
Nick Young retorted: "But 240 million is not enough. I won't give it. I can only say that it is absolutely impossible for him to want such an offer. Are you afraid of a team like this? Let Reeves be the boss of the Lakers. "
Arenas continued: "I'm sure the opponents may not be afraid, but how many points did he score? He scored 51 points and 41 points in two games respectively. Now this data is very good, but it is only a maximum salary, not a super maximum salary. "
