The Washington Wizards and wing Deni Avdija have agreed to a four-year, $55 million rookie scale extension. The deal is fully guaranteed, per Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.
Avdija averaged career-highs of 9.2 points, 6.4 rebounds and 2.8 assists last season. He’s also regarded as a solid defender.
Avdija’s extension is roughly the equivalent of the four-year Non-Taxpayer MLE.
