Luka Dončić on Track to Secure Largest Contract in NBA History — Potential $570M Deal Looms
April 11, 2025 – Dallas, TX
NBA superstar Luka Dončić is positioning himself to make history—financially. According to league insiders and salary cap projections, Dončić is on pace to sign the largest contract in NBA history, potentially worth up to $570 million over the next eight seasons.
The critical step comes this August, when Dončić is expected to ink a two-year extension that would carry him through the 2028 offseason. At that point, he would become eligible for a supermax contract, potentially with the Los Angeles Lakers—setting the stage for a groundbreaking deal.
These staggering figures are based on projected increases to the NBA salary cap, which is expected to rise by approximately 10% annually. While those projections are subject to change, the possibility of Dončić becoming the highest-paid player in league history is very real.
The 25-year-old Slovenian guard has already cemented himself as one of the premier talents in the league, boasting multiple All-NBA selections, elite scoring ability, and international star power. A contract of this magnitude would not only reflect his individual dominance but also the NBA’s rapidly growing financial landscape.
If everything aligns, Luka Dončić could soon hold a record-breaking deal that redefines the market for future superstars—and further solidifies his status as the face of the league’s next generation.
