Wall gets $170M extension

A person familiar with the deal said All-Star point guard John

Wall has agreed to a $170 million, four-year contract extension with the Washington Wizards that will start with the 2019 season. The person confirmed the terms of the agreement to The Associated Press on Friday night on condition of anonymity because the deal had not been announced. Wall is a four-time Eastern Conference All-Star who was the No. 1 overall pick in the 2010 NBA Draft out of Kentucky. He becomes the third player to agree this summer to a designated player “supermax” extension, joining Houston’s James

Harden and Golden State’s Stephen Curry.
