Center Jaylin Williams Signs $24 Million Extension With Thunder

  • On June 29, 2025, Oklahoma City Thunder extended center Jaylin Williams to a three-year, $24 million contract.
  • Williams, who was chosen by the Thunder with the 34th pick in the 2022 draft, opted not to exercise his $2.1 million contract option for the upcoming season before agreeing to a new extension.
  • Over three seasons and 146 games, Williams has averaged just over five points, around four and a half boards, and close to two assists per game. Last season, he connected on nearly 40% of his three-point attempts.
  • Sam Presti said Williams showed value as a depth piece, and the contract structure makes him an easy trade candidate if the team nears salary cap limits.
  • The extension secures Williams with the Thunder after their first NBA championship, while his youthful, team-friendly deal supports roster flexibility.
