Free agent guard Collin Gillespie intends to sign a four-year, $48 million contract to return to the Phoenix Suns, according to sources reporting to ESPN. The agreement ensures that Gillespie remains with the franchise on a long-term basis following his tenure with the team under previous contract structures.
Gillespie originally entered the NBA after going undrafted out of Villanova in 2022. Following his collegiate career, he spent three consecutive seasons playing on two-way contracts. This new four-year deal marks a significant milestone in his professional career, as he moves from two-way status to a lucrative, multi-year standard NBA contract worth a total of $48 million.
The reported deal represents a major commitment from the Phoenix Suns organization toward the guard. After spending three years navigating the league's developmental contract system, Gillespie has now secured a guaranteed position on the roster for the next four seasons. This move solidifies his place in the league after starting his journey as an undrafted player. The details of the agreement were confirmed by sources to ESPN on Saturday.
