Andrew Bogut’s contract has been extended by Golden State Warriors

Washington - The Golden State Warriors announced that they had extended the contract with Australian centre Andrew Bogut.

“OFFICIAL: The Warriors have signed center Andrew Bogut to a multi-year contract extension,” tweeted the NBA club Friday, one day after the pre-season ended, reports Xinhua.

The three-year deal is reported to be worth $36 million, with incentives that could raise its value to $42 million, according to USA Today.

That would require the 28-year-old top overall pick in 2005 NBA draft to play at least 65 games in each of the three seasons covered and reach certain performance levels, the newspaper said.

The oft-injured Bogut, whose contract was set to expire after this season, missed a total of 107 games over the past two seasons as he battled injuries to his elbow, wrist and ankle.
