Khaman Maluach Contract & Salary

Khaman Maluach is on the books for $6,316,680 in 2026-27, the 7th largest cap hit on the Phoenix Suns roster and 3.3% of the team's $190.6M payroll.

That ranks 227th among the 434 players with a 2026-27 salary on the books, and eats 3.8% of the $165.0M salary cap.

The deal has 3 seasons left on it, running through 2028-29, worth $21,370,720 in guaranteed money.

The money climbs as it goes: $6,316,680 in the first year up to $8,436,880 in the last, a 34% rise across the deal.

Not every year is locked in: 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 7th highest-paid of the 14 players on the roster, in the middle of the pay structure.

He is one of 14 players on the Phoenix Suns' books for 2026-27, whose 2026-27 salaries add up to $190,579,034.

Phoenix Suns sit at $190.6M in payroll and are currently classified Tax Payer, with -$4.8M of room below the first apron.
