However, the Houston Rockets saw fit to give the Canadian-born enforcer a four-year, $80 million contract. Something that had NBA Twitter shook:
“Dillon Brooks got paid $80 million??” asked LakeShowYo.

“Crazy times in the NBA when Westbrook is worth $8 million and Dillion Brooks is worth $80 million,” tweeted Tate Frazier. “I know it’s not apples to apples and the years aren’t the same but my goodness that’s wild.”

“So you sign Dillon Brooks for $80 million, who’s unplayable next to Amen Thompson … Keep KPJ who will take minutes from Amen Thompson, and sign a $43 million per year deal for a veteran PG who will likely lead your team in minutes (at Amens position) … Why even draft him??” a user wondered.
