Still no contract extension for Tyronn Lue

While the Lakers had their sights set on him to replace Darvin Ham, Tyron Lue should extend with the Clippers. Since he arrived in Los Angeles, the team has alternated between good and bad, with a conference final in its first season, but also two defeats in the first round in two years, and even a season without playoffs in 2022.

Anyway, Tyronn Lue likes the Clippers, and he will be on the bench at the start of the school year for the first time at the Intuit Dome, the new venue built in Inglewood. The question is whether it will be extended this summer. According to The Athleticdiscussions are not moving forward, even if the Clippers want to extend it.

No doubt it's stuck in terms of salary, and that Tyron. Lue wants his emoluments to be aligned with what has been practiced for two years. With seven million dollars per year, he finds himself behind the salaries offered for a year to Monty Williams, Gregg Popovich, Erik Spoelstra and Steve Kerr. For a profile like that of Tyronn Lue, you now have to pay at least 10 million dollars per year. This is also what Mike Budenholzer negotiated with the Suns: $50 million over five years.
