犹他爵士在周日早上与鲁迪·戈伯特达成了一项大规模的续约，使他成为NBA第三高收入球员。根据《盐湖论坛报》的埃里克·沃尔登的说法，戈伯特续约后，多诺万·米切尔对他的队友的交易做出了反应，因为他们两人上赛季都有点不满。

与戈伯特的新爵士合同在五年内价值2.05亿美元，使他成为NBA历史上最富有的中锋。尽管有很多人对合同持怀疑态度，米切尔还是为他的队友感到高兴。
除了戈伯特，米切尔在休赛期也得到了一个长期的延长期，在五年内为他净赚了1.95亿美元。有鉴于此，爵士乐现在与他们的特许经营权基石签订了至少5年的合同。今年早些时候，两人的关系似乎有些动摇，但米切尔和戈伯特现在的处境似乎要好得多。

The Utah Jazz inked Rudy Gobert to a massive extension on Sunday morning, making him the third highest-paid player in the NBA. Following Gobert’s extension, Donovan Mitchell gave his reaction to his teammate’s deal after both of them had a slight beef last season, per Eric Walden of the Salt Lake Tribune.

Of course, during last season’s COVID-19 situation, Gobert was the first known player in the NBA to test positive for the virus. He also played down the virus, causing Mitchell to also test positive for COVID-19, which caused a hiccup in the duo’s relationship on the Jazz.
Despite the shaky relationship the duo had earlier this year, Mitchell said that their relationship is much better on and off of the court right now for the Jazz.

Since the end of last season, talks between the Jazz and Gobert heated up as both sides wanted to get a deal done. However, Mitchell applauded Gobert for working tirelessly during the offseason, regardless of whether or not he knew a contract was going to get finalized.

The new Jazz contract for Gobert is worth $205 million over five years, making him the richest center in NBA history. Even though there are plenty of people who are skeptical of the contract, Mitchell is happy for his teammate.
Besides Gobert, Mitchell also received a long-term extension in the offseason, netting him $195 million over five years. In light of that, the Jazz now have both of their franchise cornerstones under contract for at least five more years. And while the duo looked to be on shaky ground earlier this year, Mitchell and Gobert seem to be at a much better place right now.
