Brandon Roy has agreed to a contract extension with the Portland Trailblazers. The deal will be for the max amount over 5 years, over 80mil. B-Roy in only 3 yrs in the league has already become the 3rd or 4th best SG in the league behind the great Kobe Bryant, verge of great Dwayne Wade and give or take with Joe Johnson of the Atlanta Hawks. He has improved each of his yrs in the league since his rookie year of 2006-07 where he was Rookie of The Year. This year he also led the Blazers back to one of the top teams in the West and in the playoffs for the 1st time since 2003. He made his 2nd All Star team had career highs in pts (22.6), reb (4.7), fg% (48.0), 3pt% (37.7), and games played (78). He also had 37.2mpg 82.4 ft% and 5.1ast which are all 2nd highest of his career.
The deal will last until the end of the 2015 season. The 25yr olds worth has been proven which is why the team is making sure he will be there for a long time. The team was 21-61 the year before he got there and this past year they went 54-28. B-Roy was the 6th overall pick in the 2006 Draft by the Minnesota Timberwolves but the traded his rights to Portland for their draft pick thich was Randy Foye who they just traded before this past draft to Washington.
