US EditionNBA Free Agency: D'Angelo Russell to Sign with Mavericks as Dallas Gets Kyrie Irving Injury Replacement
- On Monday, the Dallas Mavericks signed veteran guard D'Angelo Russell to a $13 million deal over two years to fill in for Kyrie Irving during his extended absence.
- The signing followed Irving's surgery and expected recovery from a torn ACL that will likely sideline him for most of the 2025-26 season.
- Russell, entering his 11th NBA season and a former Lakers and Nets player, is valued for his pick-and-roll efficiency and will initially start before moving to a reserve role.
- He appeared in 58 games last season, averaging 12.6 points and 5.1 assists with a shooting percentage drop to 36.7 percent overall in Brooklyn, and the Mavericks used their $5.7 million taxpayer mid-level exception to sign him.
- The addition gives Dallas an experienced playmaker to fill in for Irving during his recovery, while also pairing Russell once again with Anthony Davis, a former teammate from their time with the Lakers, on a roster that emphasizes strong defense and emerging young talent.
