Hugo González is on the books for $2,923,560 in 2026–27, the 9th largest cap hit on the Boston Celtics roster and 1.5% of the team's $198.7M payroll.
That ranks 333rd among the 444 players with a 2026–27 salary on the books, and eats 1.8% of the $165.0M salary cap.
The deal has 3 seasons left on it, running through 2028-29, worth $11,514,265 in guaranteed money.
The money climbs as it goes: $2,923,560 in the first year up to $5,528,065 in the last, a 89% rise across the deal.
Not every year is locked in: 2027-28 team option, 2028-29 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 20, he is still inside the cheap early-career window; this deal runs through his age-22 season, before the expensive years start.
He is the 9th highest-paid of the 14 players on the roster, in the middle of the pay structure.
