Clippers agree to three-year extension with key guard

The Clippers and guard Terance Mann have agreed to a three-year, fully guaranteed $47M contract extension, Shams Charania of The Athletic reported on Friday .

The new deal will run through the 2027-28 season.

Mann, who is making $11,423,077 this season, was due to enter unrestricted free agency next summer.

Mann, 27, was a second-round draft pick in 2019 who has far exceeded expectations.

Mann made 85 starts during his first four seasons, then became a full-time starter last season.

Mann started 71 of 75 games and averaged 8.8 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.6 assists last year.

He hasnt been asked to play a major role during his first five seasons, but is valued as a glue guy, providing solid defense and playing within the framework of the teams schemes.

His new salary is very reasonable for a starter, considering a rising salary cap.
