Anthony davis new contract 2015
Anthony Davis signed a 5-year, $145 million contract extension with the New Orleans Pelicans on November 1, 2015. The contract was signed before the 2015-2016 season and ran through the 2020-2021 season.
Here are the details of the contract:
- Length: 5 years
- Total value: $145 million
- Average annual salary: $29 million
- Signing bonus: $25 million
- Player option: None
- Trade kicker: Yes
The contract was a maximum contract, which means that it was the most that the Pelicans could offer Davis under the NBA's collective bargaining agreement. The contract also included a trade kicker, which means that if Davis was traded during the contract, he would receive an additional 15% of his salary as a bonus.
Davis has since become one of the most dominant players in the NBA, earning multiple All-NBA selections and leading the Pelicans to the playoffs multiple times. He is currently playing for the Los Angeles Lakers, whom he joined in 2019.
