Report: Phoenix Suns Extend Oso Ighodaro Through 2031
The extension is worth $29 million and begins in 2028 after Phoenix picks up his 2027-28 team option.
- On Sunday, the Phoenix Suns signed center Oso Ighodaro to a three-year, $29 million contract extension through the 2030-31 season, as confirmed by agent Erika Ruiz of Primera Sports.
- As part of the agreement, the Suns exercised a $2.5 million team option on Ighodaro for the 2027-28 season, which ensures the new extension formally begins in 2028.
- During his second NBA season, Ighodaro played in all 82 games, averaging 6.5 points and 5.3 rebounds while shooting 65.3% from the field.
- With starting center Mark Williams sidelined for multiple months following shoulder surgery, the Suns will rely heavily on Ighodaro and second-year big man Khaman Maluach.
- The Suns open the 2026-27 season this Wednesday against the Portland Trail Blazers, continuing their strategy of building a younger roster for future contention.
