Shy Gilgeous Alexander is the main character. I get the highest salary, but I can't object. Gilzer Alexander is worth more than that.
Local media in the U.S. reported on the 2nd (Korea time) that Shy Gilzer Alexander agreed to a four-year Supermax contract worth $285 million (about 387 billion won) with Oklahoma City for the 2030-2031 season.
It is the highest average annual salary in NBA history ($7.125 million, about 97 billion won).
This season, Gilles Alexander was scheduled to receive about $38.4 million. It's a huge amount, but it was only ranked 35th in the NBA in annual salary. The highest salary in the 2025-2026 season is Stephen Curry (about $59.6 million).
However, this supermax contract has changed the main character of the highest salary.
Born in Toronto, Canada, Gilzer Alexander made his debut with the Los Angeles Clippers immediately after being selected by the Charlotte Hornets as the 11th pick in the first round of the 2018 NBA Draft after leaving the University of Kentucky.
After his first season, he was traded to Oklahoma City. At the time, the Los Angeles Clippers brought in Kawhi Leonard with a strong Win Now policy. Leonard named Paul George as his partner, and eventually gave up Gilzer Alexander to bring in Paul George, then a member of Oklahoma.
Gilzer Alexander was in full swing after moving to Oklahoma.
He has developed into a main ball handler and ace. He established himself as the league's best shooter last season and became the league's best player by leading Oklahoma City to victory this season.
