#9. Jaylen Brown (5 years, $285.3 million)
The Boston Celtics were heavily trolled by fans in late July 2023 when they gave Jaylen Brown a staggering five-year, $285.3 million deal. Boston was criticized for giving the biggest contract in NBA history to a player who often struggled on the big stage.
Brown rewarded that faith by helping the Celtics win championship No. 18, winning the ECF and Finals MVP along the way. He will be under contract until the 2028-29 season before he becomes an unrestricted free agent.
#10. Jayson Tatum (5 years, $314 million)
One year after giving Jaylen Brown the most lucrative contract in NBA history, the Boston Celtics reset the record this summer. They signed Jayson Tatum to a mouth-boggling five-year, $314 million contract.
Next season, Tatum gets $34.8 million but the final year of the old contract, which would have given him $37 million was voided. He will be on Boston's payroll for a staggering $54.1 million during the 2025-26 season.
Jayson Tatum has a $71.4 million player option heading into the summer of 2029.
