Because Jokic was named MVP, he is eligible to sign the supermax in 2022, when he’ll have one year left on his existing deal, or in 2023, when he becomes an unrestricted free agent. LaVine, Booker and Towns are not quite as fortunate as Jokic. While their situations differ slightly — Booker and Towns are not free agents in 2022, while LaVine is — all three are supermax eligible, in either an extension or regular contract, if they earn All-NBA honors this season (or win MVP).
