D'Angelo Russell is staying with the Washington Wizards on the following contract: Year 1: $27,285,000 Year 2: $29,331,375 Year 3: $31,377,750 Year 4: $33,424,125 Year 5: $35,470,500 (Player Option) Total: $156,888,750 D'Angelo really only had one other strong suitor, the Los Angeles Lakers, and they were able to match the first four seasons of this contract. However, that guaranteed additional $35+ Million was really just too much to pass up. Additionally, the Wizards do have a nice young core of Bam Adebayo & Jonathan Isaac, plus players like Dragic, Robert Williams, Gary Trent Jr to hope on, so the franchise was in a solid-enough position to convince D'Angelo to return to the only home he's ever known in the D5-verse NBA. Congratulations Kareem Abdul-Jabbar & the Washington Wizards!
