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 93rd among the 434 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.

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.
