Can Thunder Afford to Extend Eric Maynor?

Eric Maynor. Remember him?

Maynor is seeking an extension to his rookie contract with the Thunder, just like Serge Ibaka and James Harden. However, Maynor’s name often gets dropped when trying to decipher the Thunder’s trilogy of contracts.

Retaining Maynor ranks third among the trio, but he is not a throwaway player. He unquestionably has worth.

What about Maynor? In what future financial neighborhood will he reside? Will it be $14 million for four years? $16 million? $18 million? Higher? Lower?

Extending Maynor’s contract might not be financially feasible given Ibaka’s deal and what Harden’s potential deal could be.
