Warriors, Bogut seal extension

The Golden State Warriors said on Friday they had signed Australian center Andrew Bogut to a multi-year contract extension, reported to be worth US$36 million.

USA Today reported the three-year deal is worth US$36 million, with incentives that could raise its value to US$42 million.

“OFFICIAL: The Warriors have signed center Andrew Bogut to a multi-year contract extension,” the National Basketball Association club said on Twitter.

The Warriors have reached an agreement with Bogut on a three-year, US$36 million extension, a person with knowledge of the situation told USA Today Sports.

That would require the oft-injured big man to play at least 65 games in each of the three seasons covered and reach certain performance levels, the newspaper said.

Bogut, the top overall pick in the 2005 NBA draft, has struggled to stay healthy. He missed a total of 107 games over the past two seasons as he battled injuries to his elbow, wrist and ankle. Bogut enters the 2013-14 season owning career averages of 12.2 points, 9.2 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 1.58 blocks and 32.1 minutes over eight seasons with the Milwaukee Bucks and the Warriors.
