The Philadelphia 76ers and their key player, Joel Embiid, have finalized a three-year contract extension worth $193 million, as reported by Shams Charania of The Athletic.

This new agreement incorporates an option for Embiid to remain with the team for the 2028-29 season if he chooses.

With this extension, Embiid’s current contract totals five years with a payout of $301 million, placing it among the most lucrative in the history of the NBA.

Embiid, a former league MVP, continued to impress last season despite limited appearances due to injuries, playing in only 39 games. Nonetheless, he achieved a personal best with an average of 34.7 points per game, along with 11.0 rebounds and 1.7 blocks. Despite his injury history, the 10-year veteran is at the peak of his career and remains one of the most formidable centers of his era.

At 30 years old and coming off a significant contract extension, Embiid is gearing up for a promising season. He will be joined by star guard Tyrese Maxey and the newly acquired Paul George, setting high expectations for the 76ers as a strong contender in the Eastern Conference.
