Monty Williams

Monty Williams agree to extension with the Suns

The beloved head coach of the Phoenix Suns will be staying in The Valley a little while longer after reports came out of him extending his contract with the organization. Despite having two years left on his original five-year deal, Phoenix offered him the extension and now has James Jones and Monty Williams locked in for the foreseeable future.

While the terms of the contract, such as years, are not public, fans can rest assured that he will be here for several more years – beyond the original two years, he had left on his contract. In three years with the team, Williams has gone 149-78 for Phoenix. That includes leading the Suns to the 2021 NBA Finals.

It is also worth mentioning that every season under his guidance, the team never fell to a losing record. Impressively, Monty led his team to improve every single season. Most notably last season with the franchise record of 64 wins.

Monty had two more seasons under his original contract, however, the Suns wanted to lock him up now for even more seasons to come. Number of years not yet known. If I had to guess it would be another 3-4 seasons that he signed an extension on. #NBA #NBATwitter #NBAFreeAgency https://t.co/cUnj9K2ugC
