The Dallas Mavericks will be signing Kyrie Irving to a three-year, $119 million contract on Tuesday after the guard declined his $43 million player option for next season, ESPN's Shams Charania reported.
Irving's new deal includes a player option for him for the 2027-28 season, and keeps him out of free agency this summer.
Now Irving will be with the Mavericks for the near future as the team looks to draft Cooper Flagg with the No. 1 pick on Wednesday night. He will also continue playing with Anthony Davis, who was traded to the Mavericks in February when Luka Doncic was sent to the Los Angeles Lakers.
