What happened: Brandon Miller agreed to a five-year extension with Charlotte on Oct. 19. Cason Wallace agreed to a five-year extension with Oklahoma City the same day.

Why it matters: The agreements clear extension business before the 2026-27 season begins. Both clubs keep young cornerstones under contract instead of letting talks carry into the year.

By the numbers: Miller: five years, $209M. Wallace: five years, $139M. Both agreements dated Oct. 19.

What to watch: Both teams open the 2026-27 season this week. Opening-night rosters lock after Monday moves.
