www.sonsofsamhorn.netHere’s the latest I can confirm based on recent reporting:
- Luke Kornet reportedly agreed to a multi-year free-agent deal with the San Antonio Spurs in 2025, with sources citing a four-year, around $41 million contract and a team option on the final season. This move followed significant roster changes in Boston and positioned Kornet as a backup big for San Antonio [sources include ESPN/Shams Charania reporting and multiple outlets referencing the Spurs deal].[3][9]
- Before that, there was widespread speculation about Kornet’s next contract as an unrestricted free agent with the Celtics potentially retaining him or letting him depart, with projections in the $10–14 million per year range circulating in June 2025 headlines.[1][4]
- By January 2026, Kornet had already transitioned to the Spurs and commented on his decision to leave Boston for San Antonio, signaling that his career path had moved beyond Boston’s roster plans.[8]
If you’d like, I can pull exact contract details from those reports and summarize the implications for Kornet’s role, or look for any more recent updates (e.g., contract extensions, options exercised, or trade rumors) from the latest weeks. I can also create a quick timeline of Kornet’s contract history and team-by-team moves.
