[HoopsHype] (NBA) executives project Middleton to command a four-year, $130 million contract

Saw this article posted in r/nba, full quote:

> NBA executives across the league who spoke with HoopsHype expect the Milwaukee Bucks to retain Khris Middleton this summer. Those executives project Middleton to command a four-year, $130 million contract from Milwaukee should he decline his $40.4 million player option for the upcoming season and enter unrestricted free agency.

> The Bucks have a strong desire to retain both Middleton and free-agent center Brook Lopez this summer, league sources told HoopsHype. Milwaukee is expected to compete with the Houston Rockets for Lopez’s services. Previously, Lopez told HoopsHype in January that he wanted to re-sign with Milwaukee.

Seems like a reasonable deal for Khris. Interesting to hear the Rockets are supposedly making a move for Brook, glad he wants to stay and we’re trying to keep him tho.
