Gobert’s contract status: He is under Minnesota Timberwolves commitments through the 2025-26 season with a player option for 2025-26 that could affect his final year, and his deal has a high overall value that places him among the NBA’s top earners at the center position. This reflects the large max extension Gobert signed in 2020 with Utah and subsequently continued under Minnesota, including the option year structure.[1][2][3][4]

2024-25 and 2025-26 specifics: For the 2024-25 season his base salary was in the low-to-mid $40 million range on the current max deal, with the 2025-26 option potentially elevating base salary higher depending on whether he exercises the final year. The final-year option deadline is typically in June of the season before the option would kick in, and choosing the option would lock in a substantial annual salary for that season.[2][3][4][1]

Career earnings context: Remaining guaranteed money on his contract with the Timberwolves totals well over $100 million across the final years, with average annual values commonly cited around $33–36 million in recent reports, depending on the exact year and whether the option is exercised. This aligns with multiple outlets documenting the contract’s structure, totals, and variations by season.[3][4][2]

Notable sources and recurring figures: Several outlets summarize Gobert’s deal as a five-year package initially worth about $205 million with a 2025-26 player option, and ongoing reporting through 2026 confirms the high annual salaries attached to each season’s cap hit. Expect numbers to vary slightly by source due to option mechanics and dead cap considerations, but the overall picture remains that he is one of the NBA’s highest-paid centers on a multi-year max contract.[6][1][2]
