Steven Adams says his first big purchase after signing a 140 million dollar contract extension was a new phone.  The 23-year-old center yesterday put pen to paper to stay on with his NBA team the Oklahoma City Thunder for another four years.However Adams revealed the final days of negotiation were stressful, for his agent in particular, after he dropped his cellphone in an ice-bath.

"I dropped my phone in the cold tub and it didn't work for like the past three days and stuff (contract negotiations) was going on.

"My agent was trying to contact me and I was like 'I can't, I'm sorry, I just don't have a phone' so that was my purchase yesterday.

"(It's) quite a nice phone."
