Carsen Edwards gets a guaranteed contract

Carsen Edwards continued his exploits at the NCAA tournament by lighting him up in the NBA Summer League in Vegas for the Boston Celtics. In four games, he averages 18 points per game in 23 minutes and draws 52% of the floor. He has been on fire for three years since Boston is one of three teams 4-0. This hard work paid off as Edwards, choice number 33, secured a guaranteed contract today:

Himmelsbach went on to explain that it was a four-year contract, which is essential because second-round picks do not automatically benefit from guaranteed contracts. For example: Vincent Edwards only signed a two-year contract last season with the Rockets and won just $ 77,250 in just two games with the Houston Rockets as a second-round pick, but he was part of the G-League Championship, spending most of the costs. season there.

Caleb Swanigan enters the final year of his initial three-year contract and earns $ 2,033,160 this season with the Sacramento Kings. This must however be an exceptional year for him, as it is his last year before the Kings have to take a club option for him next year. Since he has played only 48 games in the last two years, spending the rest of the time in the G-League, it's a crucial dead season for him.

The Carsen deal is probably closer to what E'Twaun Moore had with the Celtics. At that time, Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett occupied a huge amount of hats. Moore, as the 55th overall pick, was a convenient way to fill a list without having to pay a lot. E'Twaun earned $ 381,193 in the first year and did not surpass the million dollar threshold until the fifth year of the league.

All in all, this is great news for Carsen, because it means that Boston really has plans for the future with him.
