Middleton May Land $7-8 Million Deal in Summer?

Said Bucks coach Jason Kidd: “Khris (Middleton) is playing at a very high level at both ends of the court.’’

While Middleton is cashing in on his increased role with the team, he’ll be cashing in at the bank this summer as well.

The 23-year-old Middleton will become a restricted free agent on July 1 and you can go to the bank he’ll draw plenty of interest.

One NBA assistant general manager estimated Middleton will receive a multi-year contract that will average around $7 million annually; another NBA official predicted Middleton will be paid $8M per year.
