Nuggets' Aaron Gordon agrees to 4-year, $133 million extension - ESPN

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon has agreed to a four-year, $133 million contract extension with the franchise, his agents told ESPN's Shams Charania.

The deal includes a player option in 2028-29 and a trade kicker.

Gordon's new deal comes via opting in on his $23 million salary for 2025-26, then three additional years at his maximum salary, including bonuses.

Gordon, 29, is one of nine NBA players to average 15 points and 55% shooting over the past two seasons.

He is entering his 11th NBA season, spending the first 6½ years of his career in Orlando before being dealt to Denver at the 2021 trade deadline.

Gordon's two-way, versatile ability made him an X-factor and final piece alongside Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray on their 2023 championship team.
