Brisbane Heat big hitting sensation Chris Lynn has recommitted to the franchise for a further five seasons.
The Heat announced that Lynn will be contracted until the end of the 2021-22 summer.
It is not just the length of the deal that is remarkable, it has been reported that it is the biggest money deal in BBL history.
The deal is reportedly in excess of $1 million.
Lynn is excited by the opportunity to play for the club long term.
"I'm honoured that the Heat have shown confidence in me for the coming seasons and given us the opportunity to achieve something special as a club in the future," Lynn said.
"The Heat has evolved into a club for all Queensland fans and we're determined to make a success of the opportunity we have ahead of us.
"It was one of the best experiences of my career to play in front of five sold-out home crowds at the Gabba."
The Heat also announced the extension of coach Daniel Vettori and assistant Shane Bond for a further two seasons.
