Jordan Poole and the Warriors have put pen to paper on a massive new contract.

The Warriors announced Sunday morning that they have signed Poole to a multiyear contract extension.

ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported Saturday morning, citing Poole's agents, Drew Morrison and Austin Brown of CAA Sports, that the 23-year-old guard's deal is a four-year deal worth up to $140 million.

Anthony Slater of The Athletic reported shortly after, citing sources, that Poole's extension, which would start for the 2023-24 season, has $123 million guaranteed with incentives that could add an additional $17 million over the life of the contract.

The Warriors were very open about their desire to extend Poole, and a deal had appeared close in recent days after Poole's altercation with Draymond Green in practice last week.

The massive extension comes after Poole's breakout 2021-22, in which he averaged 18.5 points per game on 44.8 percent shooting from the field and 36.4 percent from 3-point range, a season in which he firmly was in the Most Improved Player and Sixth Man of the Year conversations.
