Jaylen Brown sent shockwaves through the hoops community after he signed the richest contract in NBA history. The Boston Celtics star wing inked a five-year supermax extension that will pay him $304 million. However, it looks like his teammate Jayson Tatum is now eyeing a similar $300,000,000 deal. The Celtics chose Tatum as the No. 3 draft pick at the 2017 NBA Draft, and he soon established himself as the franchise’s marquee player. After his rookie contract with the Celtics ended, Tatum signed a max five-year, $163,000,300 deal with the Celtics. The Duke alum will now soon be eligible for a supermax extension worth more than his teammate Jaylen Brown.

However, the Celtics forward was recently spotted in a star-studded event partying with the likes of millionaire Tom Brady and James Harden’s teammates.

Jayson Tatum attends Jay-Z’s blackjack party

Rapper Jay-Z hosted a casino night at Atlantic City’s Ocean Casino Resort to raise money for REFORM Alliance. The nonprofit organization aims to transform probation or parole laws, offering people employment and a better life instead of returning to prison. The 007-themed event was an exclusive black-tie event attended by 250 VIPs. It was a star-studded event with the likes of Tom Brady, and James Harden‘s 76ers teammates, Tobias Harris and PJ Tucker, in attendance. It also included notable faces of the industry like Kim Kardashian, Beyonc?, Travis Scott, and more. The Celtics star was also invited to show support for the criminal justice reform movement.

In addition to a blackjack party, the event also featured a dinner and a live auction. Items donated by Tom Brady, George Condo, Rashid Johnson, and Jay-Z raised an impressive $7.8 million during live-action. The organization raised $24 million in total from the inaugural fundraiser event.

Jayson Tatum will be eligible for a supermax extension next year

Jayson Tatum’s current max five-year $163,000,300 contract allows him a player option in 2025-26 for $37,096,620. However, since Tatum has made first-team All-NBA the last two seasons, it makes him eligible for a supermax extension. Therefore, he can decline his extension next season and instead sign a five-year supermax extension.

To be eligible for a supermax extension, a player should have completed at least seven years in the league and should be named to an All-NBA team either the previous season or two seasons prior. Tatum will be playing his seventh season in the league and has made the All-NBA First Team in the last two seasons. Therefore, the 25YO forward will be eligible for a five-year, $318 million contract next offseason.
