Nikola Jokic to Delay Extension Talks Until 2026
Nikola Jokic has no interest in signing a contract extension this offseason. The three-time MVP is eligible to sign a three-year, $200 million extension until Oct. 20, but he reportedly plans to delay contract negotiations until next summer. In 12 months, Jokic could earn an extra $77 million on his contract. Currently, Jokic is two years into a five-year, $276 million deal. Since Jokic still has several seasons left on his current contract, he isn't leaving anytime soon, and the Nuggets have no reason to panic. It's simply a financial decision for Jokic to wait until next summer before starting extension talks.
