Guard Opts to Bypass Free Agency, Stay in Dallas
Kyrie Irving, one of the most skilled guards in NBA history, has reached an agreement with the Dallas Mavericks for the upcoming NBA season. The deal is for three years and is worth $126 million USD. Irving, an eight-time All-Star, will be returning to the Mavericks, where he previously played before joining the Brooklyn Nets and then moving on to the Mavericks in a trade.
Irving has impressive career averages of 23.4 points and 5.7 assists per game, with 27.1 points and 5.5 assists per game last season. The partnership between Irving and Luka Dončić on the court has not reached the desired success yet, but the Mavericks are hopeful that building up the duo and the team will lead to better results.
The team's general manager, Nico Harrison, expressed confidence in Irving and Dončić's ability to work together and emphasized the importance of other players understanding their roles when playing alongside these two talented stars. With Irving's return, the Mavericks are looking forward to a promising NBA season ahead.
