As Patrick Williams gears up for the culmination of his current contract with the Chicago Bulls, the forward has set his sights on securing a substantial payday for his next deal, according to recent revelations by NBA insider Zach Lowe.
Currently under a 4-year, $32 million contract, which is set to expire at the end of the season, the former No. 4 draft pick is poised to enter the market as a restricted free agent next summer.
Zach Lowe’s insights, shared during The Lowe Post podcast, hinted at Williams’ aspirations for a significant financial leap in his upcoming contract negotiations, with expectations significantly surpassing the $20 million mark.
“I’m hearing Patrick Williams wants big, big numbers for his next contract… like, starts with a 2 and isn’t $20M,” Lowe said, via BASKETBALL ON 𝕏.
After averaging 10.2 points, 4 rebounds, and 1.2 assists per game in 28.3 minutes last season, the 22-year-old Williams is determined to leverage his performance and secure a lucrative extension.
