The Portland Trail Blazers have reached a four-year, $90 million rookie extension with guard Shaedon Sharpe and a four-year, $82 million extension with forward Toumani Camaratheir agents told ESPN on Sunday.
Agents Mike George of Klutch Sports, who represents Sharpe, and Dave Putterie, who represents Camara, told ESPN of the extensions.
Sharpe, 22, was the No. 7 pick in the 2022 NBA draft and is seen around the league as an ascending scorer and playmaker. In his third NBA season, he averaged 18.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 72 games.
A hyperathletic wing, Sharpe shot north of 75% within 3 feet of the basket and racked up 65 dunks, and he had the highest average jump height among players to make at least 50 dunks, per GeniusIQ. He struggled with efficiency farther away from the rim but has shown a willingness to fire away from deep regardless (6.6 3-point attempts per game last season).
His seven career games with at least 30 points is the most by any Trail Blazers player before turning 22 years old.
Camara, an NBA All-Defensive second-team selection, averaged 11.3 points, 5.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists on 45.8% shooting last season. He also drew 91 offensive fouls last season, which was the second most in a season since player tracking began in 2013-14.
He has blossomed into a vital and durable two-way player after being picked No. 52 by the Phoenix Suns in the 2023 NBA draft. The Trail Blazers acquired him from the Suns in the three-team trade that involved Damian Lillard going to the Milwaukee Bucks and Deandre Ayton going to Portland along with Camara.
With the extension, the Blazers now lock in Camara through the 2029-30 season following a campaign in which the 6-foot-7 forward ranked ninth in total steals among NBA players and became one of seven players with 100 steals and 50 blocks in a season.
He was the first Trail Blazers player to make an All-Defensive team since the 2003-04 season, when Theo Ratliffwho was acquired via trade from the Atlanta Hawks that season, also was a second-team selection.
