In a stunning move that’s shaking the NBA landscape, Phoenix Suns superstar shooting guard Devin Booker has officially agreed to a 4-year, $509 million contract with the Oklahoma City Thunder — the largest deal in NBA history to date.
The blockbuster signing was confirmed early Wednesday morning, sending shockwaves across the league as Oklahoma City secures one of basketball’s most elite scorers. Booker, 29, will now join the young, dynamic Thunder core led by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Chet Holmgren, and Jalen Williams, instantly positioning the team as a championship favorite heading into the 2025–2026 season.
According to league insiders, the Thunder front office aggressively pursued Booker in recent months, offering a deal that not only sets a new financial benchmark but also promises a long-term vision centered on contending for multiple titles.
“Devin’s leadership, work ethic, and elite scoring ability make him the perfect fit for our culture,” said Thunder GM Sam Presti. “We’re thrilled to welcome him to Oklahoma City as we take the next step toward our championship goals.”
Booker, a 4-time All-Star and Olympic gold medalist, averaged 27.1 points, 5.5 assists, and 4.8 rebounds last season with Phoenix. His move to OKC signals a major shift in the balance of power in the Western Conference, while also raising questions about the Suns’ future direction.
The deal reportedly includes a player option in the fourth year and numerous performance incentives. Booker is expected to make his Thunder debut on opening night of the 2025–26 NBA season at Paycom Center.
