CLEVELAND (AP) — Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen has agreed to a three-year, $91 million contract extension with Cleveland, a person familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press on Wednesday.
Allen, who has become indispensable for the Cavs as well as one of the Eastern Conference's top big men, will be guaranteed $131 million over the next five seasons, said the person who spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the deal has not been signed.
The Cavs hope to announce Allen's extension as early as Thursday, the person said.
One of Allen's agents, Derrick Powell, gave details of the deal earlier to ESPN.
