## Resource

Keyonte George is locked in for the long haul with a massive five-year, $157.5M deal — and he’s already proving why the Utah Jazz made the right move. Drafted in 2023, the 22-year-old has exploded into a cornerstone, averaging 23.6 points and 6.1 assists while shooting over 45% from the field. His leadership even helped the Jazz snag the second overall pick in the draft — their first time ever. Now, with George anchoring the offense alongside Lauri Markkanen, Jaren Jackson Jr., and rising talents like Ace Bailey and Darryn Peterson, the Jazz are building something special. This contract isn’t just a payday — it’s a statement that they’re serious about contending. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
