Jayson Tatum has inked the NBA's largest deal ever, worth a whopping $314 million.
The Boston Celtics superstar, who led the team to their 18th championship last month, is finalizing a five-year, super maximum contract extension through the 2029-30 season, sources told The Athletic's Shams Charania on Monday.
The 26-year-old's deal supersedes the five-year, $304 million contract that his teammate Jaylen Brown signed last season.
At the time, Brown's deal was the NBA's richest contract.
The pair have helped lead the franchise to the NBA Finals in two of the past three years, most recently beating the Mavericks 106-88 to become the winningest team in the league's history.

After clinching victory two weeks ago, Tatum got on the mic at the Celtics' after party and repeated a line from Kanye West's infamous 2005 Grammys speech.
'Everybody was wondering what would happen if we didn't win. I guess we'll never know,' he said, as his teammates cheered.
It comes amid news that the ownership group of the Celtics is reportedly planning to put the team up for sale.
After buying the franchise back in 2002, the team - led by CEO Wyc Grousbeck - is set to hit the open market.
