Ajay Mitchell Contract & Salary

Ajay Mitchell is on the books for $2,850,000 in 2026–27, the 14th largest cap hit on the Oklahoma City Thunder roster and 1.3% of the team's $214.3M payroll.

That ranks 336th among the 444 players with a 2026–27 salary on the books, and eats 1.7% of the $165.0M salary cap.

The deal has 2 seasons left on it, running through 2027-28, worth $2,850,000 in guaranteed money.

The salary is essentially flat across the deal, holding near $2,850,000 every year rather than escalating.

Not every year is locked in: 2027-28 team option.

The option year belongs to the team, which makes that season a decision point rather than a commitment: it can be picked up cheaply or declined outright.

At 24, the deal covers his age-24 through age-25 seasons — the prime years teams are usually paying a premium for.

He sits in the bottom third of the roster by salary, the part of the payroll teams use to fill out the depth chart without moving the cap needle.

He is one of 14 players on the Oklahoma City Thunder's books for 2026–27, whose 2026–27 salaries add up to $214,279,492.

Oklahoma City Thunder sit at $214.3M in payroll and are currently classified Tax Payer, with -$5.3M of room below the first apron.
