Kyrie Irving and the Dallas Mavericks have agreed to a three-year, $126 million deal. Irving will have a player option in Year 3.
The deal is below Irving's maximum and allows the Mavericks to use their full Midlevel Exception.
The Mavericks traded for Irving shortly before the trade deadline and was productive in his play, but they missed the playoffs.
Irving was reportedly set to meet with the Houston Rockets, Phoenix Suns and possibly others, but a deal was reached within the first hour of free agency.
The Houston Rockets are expecting to meet Kyrie Irving at the start of free agency, sources tell Kelly Iko of The Athletic.
Irving is widely expected to re-sign with the Dallas Mavericks, but is believed to be creating as much leverage as possible in negotations.
The Rockets are focused on Fred VanVleet, who is also considering re-signing with the Toronto Raptors.
The Dallas Mavericks intend to re-sign Dwight Powell, source tell Marc Stein of Substack.
Powell is expected to also draw interest from the Cleveland Cavaliers and Houston Rockets.
The Mavericks, however, consider Powell a key part of their team and is the longest-tenured player. Dallas is confident he will re-sign.
Kyrie Irving and the Dallas Mavericks appear to need one another without much leverage in either direction, but both sides are prepared to negotiate as free agency opens. Irving will meet with the Phoenix Suns even though they lack realistic options to match the Mavericks financially.
"Kyrie Irving is trying to create a market out there," said Adrian Wojnarowski. "It may just not be there for him. Certainly, Dallas, I think, is going to try to show some restraint, some discipline on what they're going to offer Kyrie Irving with a new deal in Dallas. It's going to be more than anybody else can offer him.
"I think he's going to try to spend some time here trying to manufacture a marketplace of salary cap space and teams that might actually scare Dallas into thinking they have to up their offer. I'm not sure that's happening. That will be an interesting process as it plays out. I still think Kyrie Irving inevitably will return back to Dallas on a deal to play with Luka Doncic."
Kyrie Irving intends to meet with the Phoenix Suns at the start of free agency, sources tell Chris Haynes of Bleacher Report. Irving will also meet with the Dallas Mavericks and possibly other teams.
The Suns were interested in trading for Irving at the trade deadline before he was traded to the Mavericks.
The Mavericks have long been considered the favorites to sign Irving. Irving could sign with the Mavericks for up to $272 million over five years.
Dallas, meanwhile, has also been linked with a trade for Deandre Ayton of the Suns.
If the Suns were to acquire Irving via a sign-and-trade, they would be hard-capped at $172 million.
The Dallas Mavericks are widely expected to sign Andre Drummond at the start of free agency, multiple rival teams have told Marc Stein of Substack.
Drummond is expected to decline his $3.36 million player option with the Chicago Bulls.
At center this offseason, the Mavericks have also acquired Richaun Holmes via trade and Dereck Lively II via the draft.
JaVale McGee and Christian Wood are out of their plans. Stein adds that signing Drummond is dependent on a trade that has yet to be agreed upon, presumably involving McGee.
Reggie Bullock's contract worth $10.5 million will be fully guaranteed for next season, sources told Marc Stein of Substack.
The contract would have dropped to $5.5 million had Bullock been waived before the Thursday deadline.
Kyrie Irving and the Dallas Mavericks are expected to agree to a new contract in free agency, though there will be some level of negotiation over the number of years and how much is guaranteed.
The Mavericks traded for Irving last February and his potential other landing spots have dwindled.
"The market for Kyrie Irving, legitimate places that he would leave Dallas for, that make sense, that are available to him... it's extremely limited," said Adrian Wojnarowski. "Perhaps almost nil. I think the full expectation is that he returns in Dallas. The question will be what kind of deal he goes back on. How many years on a contract? I don't think the money will be as much of an issue as how many fully guaranteed years are there for Kyrie Irving. I think that's where the negotiation is going to be between he and the Mavericks.
"If he wants to maximize his money on this deal, the place to do that is in Dallas."
Irving is coming off a four-year, $141 million contract he signed with the Brooklyn Nets in 2019. Irving opted into his $37 million contract with the Nets during the 2022 offseason.
The Dallas Mavericks pursued a trade of Clint Capela from the Atlanta Hawks leading up to the draft, sources tell Marc Stein of Substack.
The Hawks either wanted to send John Collins instead of Capela, or receive Josh Green back from the Mavericks in order to send out Collins. Capela is signed through the 24-25 season and is represented by Darren Matsubara and Jason Ranne of Wasserman.
The Mavericks objected to both asks from the Hawks, who traded Collins to the Utah Jazz on Monday.
The Mavericks also discussed a trade for Deandre Ayton with the Phoenix Suns.
