Suns, Dillon Brooks Agree to Three-Year Extension
The Phoenix Suns have secured one of their key players for the long term, agreeing to a three-year, $73 million contract extension with forward Dillon Brooks. The new deal will keep Brooks in Phoenix through the 2029–30 NBA season, reinforcing the franchise’s commitment to continuity after a successful 2025–26 campaign.
Brooks Rewarded for Career-Best Season
Brooks enjoyed the best season of his NBA career after joining the Suns, averaging a career-high 20.2 points, along with 3.6 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 56 games. His aggressive defense, physical style of play, and improved scoring made him one of Phoenix’s most valuable two-way players.
A Key Part of Phoenix’s Core
The extension reflects the Suns’ belief that Brooks is an important piece of the team’s future. Since arriving in Phoenix as part of the blockbuster trade that sent Kevin Durant to the Houston Rockets, Brooks has become known for bringing toughness, defensive intensity, and leadership to the roster.

Locking up Brooks ensures the Suns retain one of their top perimeter defenders and emotional leaders as they continue building a playoff contender.

With Brooks under contract through 2029–30, the Suns:
- Keep one of the NBA’s premier defensive wings.
- Retain a proven scorer coming off a career-best season.
- Maintain roster stability for the coming years.
- Strengthen their long-term core around Devin Booker and other key players.
The Bottom Line
