The NBA offseason is coming to an end, and the 2022 rookies are about to enter the last year of their rookie contract. There are only a handful of stars who have signed big contracts in advance, with only 5 people! Among them, No. 1 pick, No. 1 pick, No. 1 pick, Homegren and No. 12 pick, Jaylenway, both signed a five-year, $239 million maximum salary contract, Tanhualang, Jabbarry Smith, signed a five-year, $122 million large contract, and No. 27 pick, Jovic, signed a four-year, $62.4 million large contract. Who will become the sixth 2022 rookie to renew his contract early? Just today, good news came from Sharp, No. 7!

According to NBA famous reporter Jake Fischer, the Trail Blazers issued a four-year, $90 million early contract renewal for Sharp. Sharp was the No. 7 pick in 2022 and played as a guard. He partnered with the Trail Blazers Soul Lillard in the rookie season. He has excellent dribbling skills, solid steps, and good at dribbling and emergency stop jump shots. His excellent explosive power always allows him to perform extremely ornamental dunks in actual combat. His vertical bounce of 1.24 meters has set a new record in the NBA physical test. His temporary decision to withdraw from the All-Star Dunk Contest during the rookie season made the entire NBA feel regretful. However, Sharp's scoring method is relatively single, and his simple and crude playing style has left him suffering from injuries in the second season of his career, and he missed 50 games!

Last season, Sharp returned from injury and was reborn, creating surprises frequently! Among them, on November 14, Sharp scored 33 points + 6 rebounds; on November 18, Sharp contributed 32 points + 5 assists; on February 27, Sharp scored 36 points + 8 rebounds + 5 assists; on April 4, Sharp scored 36 points + 7 rebounds + 5 assists; on the end of the season, Sharp scored 37 points + 7 rebounds + 5 assists. Over the whole season, Sharp played 72 games (52 starts), averaging 31 minutes per game, and averaged 18.5 points + 4.5 rebounds + 2.8 assists + 2 three-pointers, with a three-point shooting percentage of 31.1%.

This year's offseason, Sharp devoted himself to practicing his shooting, and achieved remarkable results and won a lot of prizes! As a teammate, Holiday said bluntly: Sharp's performance shocked me. He was really strong. He always suppressed me in the training camp. As a mentor, Trail Blazers coach Billups said: Sharp is good at both offense and defense, has excellent offensive rhythm, and has a flexible footstep with the ball. We have always given him physical confrontation, and he can deal with it calmly; as a bystander, Trail Blazers' team reporter Casey Holdahl pointed out incisively: The Trail Blazers coaching staff and players believe that Sharp is the best performer in the team's training camp!

Sharp himself made the point clear in an interview. He said bluntly: My main energy throughout the offseason is to improve the stability of three-pointers. I look forward to understanding the head coach’s requirements for me through training and playing my own role. Sharp's training results were also shown on the field. The Trail Blazers held a fan carnival. In a team match, Sharp was divided into a group with Hansen Yang, Holiday, Grant and others. Sharp shone with a cold-blooded and accurate three-point shot after receiving Hansen Yang, and also a signature mid-range shot. He also used a European step breakthrough in front of Klingen to win the team's MVP. According to statistics, this is the second time that Sharp has been elected as an MVP in the Fan Carnival game.

This is Sharp, who is young but pursues excellence, has high standards and strict requirements for himself, and can always stand up again where he has fallen. As the saying goes: God rewards hard work, gold can always shine! Looking ahead to the new season, Sharp has old point guard Holiday and organization center Yang Hansen, who can have more easy scoring opportunities. We are expected to see a more efficient Sharp in the new season. Sharp is only 22 years old and has no limits in the future. If he can continue to grow and learn how to play with young teammates such as Yang Hansen, he is expected to become the backcourt core of the Trail Blazers in the future. Perhaps, this is why the Trail Blazers gave Yang Hansen teammates $90 million in four years! Of course, this is just the initial offer from the Trail Blazers. Sharp has not made any statement yet. Relevant people believe that Sharp will eventually have the opportunity to sign a contract with Kidy (4 years and 100 million US dollars)! Fans, what do you think about this? Let me leave me a comment and discuss it.
