According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, the Oklahoma City Thunder have extended Alex Caruso to a new contract. The contract is set to be a four-year, $81 million deal.

The 30-year-old was in the final year of his contract, being a free agent this upcoming offseason. This year saw him making $9.9 million.

No player or team option is attached to this deal, as it runs through the 2028-29 season. He will be 35 when he is an unrestricted free agent.

This is the largest contract in Caruso’s career, as his last one was worth $36.9 million over four years.

According to the Milwaukee Bucks, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Damian Lillard are out for tonight’s game against the Chicago Bulls.

Both players suffered non-COVID illnesses since their NBA Cup championship game in Las Vegas.

Lillard hasn’t played since last Tuesday, and Giannis has not since Friday night.

Milwaukee has no Christmas game, so their next game is December 26th—the day after Christmas Day.

According to the Cleveland Cavaliers, Isaac Okoro is set to miss at least the next two weeks due to an AC joint sprain in his right shoulder.

The 23-year-old suffered the injury on December 16th against the Brooklyn Nets; fans saw him play 20 minutes before injuring himself.

In 23 games this season, Okoro averages 6.6 points off 49.5% from the field, 2.3 rebounds, and 1.7 assists in 21.0 minutes.

Okoro is in the first year of his three-year, $33 million deal.
