The terms of the deal remain undisclosed. However, it is likely to be a two-year deal worth around $12 million, with a player option in the second year. The signing comes in as their star point guard Kyrie Irving is expected to be out until January or February next year. Irving suffered a season-ending ACL injury, which put his next-season participation in jeopardy.&nbsp;<\/p><p>The Mavericks looked for point guards who could fill in for Irving until his return and found Russell has their top option. The deal was made official on Sunday and the Mavericks announced it on social media. Russell is coming off a season split between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Brooklyn Nets. In 58 games, he posted an average of 12.6 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 5.1 assists per game.&nbsp;<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Welcome to Dallas, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Dloading?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@Dloading<\/a>! &#129312;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Chime?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@chime<\/a> \/\/ <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/MFFL?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#MFFL<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/uik9mNyuCf\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/uik9mNyuCf<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Dallas Mavericks (@dallasmavs) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/dallasmavs\/status\/1942059886285566443?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>July 7, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>Talking about his career, Russell was drafted in 2015 as the second overall pick. Since then, he has played a total of 629 NBA games across teams such as the LA Lakers, Brooklyn Nets, Golden State Warriors, and the Minnesota Timberwolves. He has posted averages of 17.3 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 5.7 assists per game.&nbsp;<\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dallas Mavericks Re-Sign Kyrie Irving On a Three-Year $119 Million Contract&nbsp;<\/h2><p>Apart from signing Russell, the Mavericks re-signed Kyrie Irving on a three-year contract worth $119 million. Irving had opted out of the final year of his contract which would have paid him $42.9 million for the 2025-26 season. Having played 50 games in the 2024-25 season, the nine-time NBA All-Star averaged 24.7 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 4.6 assists per game. He was shooting 47.3% from the field and 40.1% from the three-point arc.&nbsp;<\/p><p>Irving finished the season as the only player to average at least 20 points with at least 45% made field goals, 40% of threes and shooting at least 90% from the free-throw line. While he had emerged as his side&rsquo;s guiding light following Luka Doncic&rsquo;s trade, Irving suffered a torn ACL in his left knee in March 2025. He had to undergo a surgery, and his return to court is not expected anytime soon.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"mm-layout mm-layout-type-post mm-layout-slot4\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Mavericks have signed ex-Laker D&#8217;Angelo Russell.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":71878,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_mux_skip_reasons":[],"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[698,317,21],"class_list":["post-71876","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nba","tag-dangelo-russell","tag-dallas-mavericks","tag-kyrie-irving"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.8 -
