Officially signs extension Marrkanen (shoulder) signed a five-year, $238 million contract extension with the Jazz on Wednesday, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports. Impact Markkanen renegotiated his 2024-25 salary as well, earning himself another $24 million. With this extension, Markkanen will not be eligible to be moved prior to the Feb. 6 trade deadline, so it's clear that the forward is in this for the long haul with Utah. Markkanen will be a very popular target early on in fantasy drafts after averaging 23.2 points, 8.2 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 3.2 three-pointers during the 2023-24 regular season.
