stephen curry renewed his contract with the warriors for $62.6 million a year, and jayson tatum also signed the largest contract in nba history, but this contract will not take effect until 2025.

so before that, which nba players will have the highest salaries in the 2024-25 season?

the boston celtics had just won an nba championship, so the team rewarded jayson tatum with the largest contract in nba history. the team extended its core player's contract for five years and a whopping $315 million. this massive contract came just one year after his teammate jaylen brown signed what was then the largest extension in history. just hours before tatum's extension, celtics guard derrick white also signed a sizable extension.

success is expensive in the nba, but the celtics have their championship core locked in for years now. with those superstars signed to long-term contracts, boston should be a contender for more than half a century to come.

however, tatum's contract doesn't kick in until next year, so he won't actually be among the highest paid players in the 2024-25 season. in fact, tatum is only making $32.6 million per season on his current contract, which puts him at 39th place next year. while the duke product won't be short of money, a pay raise is well deserved. with that said, here are the top 10 highest paid players next year by average annual salary.
