Terry Returns From Bahamas To Sign $50 Million Deal

Jason Terry returned from his vacation in the Bahamas to sign a six-year $50 million contract with the Mavericks.

Terry had agreed upon the contract on July 1st.

?For me, it?s a no-brainer,? Terry said. ?I?m at the prime of my career, so getting a long-term deal now was the No. 1 priority.?

?It means a lot to me ? the commitment that the Mavs have shown to me and the support they?ve shown me all year long,? said Terry, who spent five seasons with the Atlanta Hawks. ?For me, personally (coming to the Mavs) I knew it was an opportunity to play on a winning team and to finally get to the playoffs where I could showcase my skill level.

?But I also knew this was a chance for me to become a better player all-around. This is truly a blessing.?
