Updated · 2026–27 season

Malik Monk is on the books for $20,190,035 in 2026–27, the 5th largest cap hit on the Sacramento Kings roster and 10.4% of the team's $193.9M payroll.

That ranks 92nd among the 444 players with a 2026–27 salary on the books, and eats 12.2% of the $165.0M salary cap.

The deal has 2 seasons left on it, running through 2027-28, worth $41,772,486 in guaranteed money.

The money climbs as it goes: $20,190,035 in the first year up to $21,582,451 in the last, a 7% rise across the deal.

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

The option year belongs to the player, not the team — he decides whether to take the money or return to the market, so the team cannot count on it either way.

At 28, this contract runs through his age-29 season, so the back end lands after the usual peak.

He is the 5th highest-paid of the 14 players on the roster, in the middle of the pay structure.

He is one of 14 players on the Sacramento Kings' books for 2026–27, whose 2026–27 salaries add up to $193,946,824.
