100 million in 4 years! Giddy reached a contract renewal with the Bulls, the win-win ending is perfect, Kumingga lacks another partner

In the 2025 NBA offseason, many young players in the league have completed the signing of big contracts, and some even received super top salaries, becoming the biggest winners in life.

For example, the three young men of the Thunder, Alexander, Jaylenway and Chet, after helping the Thunder win the championship, all received maximum salary contracts from the Thunder this year. Not only did you prove your own value, but you also made a lot of money.

At the same time, some young players not only failed to get a contract that they were satisfied with, but instead had a very stalemate with the team. The most representative ones are three young players, Kumingga, Gidey and Cameron Thomas. All three of them felt that they could get a higher contract extension during the offseason, but the team was unwilling to pay a high price, so the situation was in a stalemate.

However, as time goes by, Cameron Thomas and Gidey have made concessions and renewed their contract with the team as the new season is approaching. Two days ago, Cameron Thomas signed a $6 million qualification offer with the Nets, ending the offseason farce. On September 10, Giddy also reached a contract renewal agreement with the Bulls, and the two sides have signed a new contract.

According to famous reporter Shams, the player's agent revealed that Giddy and the Bulls reached a four-year, $100 million contract renewal agreement.

Shams added that Gidey's contract is fully guaranteed and does not include any player or team options.

Gidey played 70 games last season, averaging 14.6 points, 8.1 rebounds, 7.2 assists and 1.2 steals per game. After the All-Star, he averaged 21.2 points, 10.7 rebounds and 9.3 assists per game, shooting 50% from the field and 46% from the three-point shooting percentage.

It is worth mentioning that last year, the Thunder used Gidey to exchange Caruso one-on-one from the Bulls in the offseason, but Caruso won the second championship this summer, while Gidey won the early contract renewal of $100 million in 4 years, which seems to be a win-win situation on the surface!

But if you think about it carefully, the transaction between the Thunder and the Bulls last summer can be said to have achieved profits from all parties, that is, wins four. result. The Thunder won the championship, Caruso won the contract and the championship, Kiddy won the big contract, and the Bulls won the big karyo player who could help the team rebuild, although he was far from the cornerstone level.

In this way, Cameron Thomas and Gidey no longer have tossed and will focus on the beginning of the new season. Then, now only Kumingga is left. The contract extension between Kumingga and the Warriors has not been agreed, and the two sides are now in a situation where they are not giving in. The Warriors signed old center Horford a few days ago, indicating that they will never increase the contract for Kuming.

Then, the final result of Kumingga may be to sign a qualification quote like Thomas and play for another year to see if you can find a more suitable contract in the free market next year. The final result of the three players proves that sometimes, players should not be too blindly confident. They feel that they can be worth more money, but the facts prove that the management of each team is very bright. If you don’t have enough strength, you won’t get the big contract you want. Kumingga probably has figured it out now. Let’s see how he and the Warriors will finally make concessions.
