Kyrie Irving was chosen by the Dallas Mavericks to improve the team last February, but as a result of his transfer things have only gotten worse for the team
After not wanting to pay a player like Jalen Brunson, who has proven to be a star in the NBA, Dallas Mavericks opted to undertake a large transfer by Kyrie Irving. The trade, which generated great expectation, was intended to increase the competitive level of a team that was currently fifth in the Western Conference. But the truth is that the effect has ended up being the opposite.
Not only has the trade not worked out, but the team has finished the regular season outside of the play-in spots. Luka Doncic’s discontent is palpable and the possibility of the Slovenian requesting a transfer is already beginning to be contemplated. That is why Dallas Mavericks have no choice but to accept Kyrie Irving’s terms to renew.
The transfer of Irving, a problem for Dallas Mavericks
In the operation by Kyrie Irving, Dallas Mavericks trade key players like Dinwiddie and Finney-Smith, with whom Doncic got along perfectly. But not only that, but they also transferred a first round of the Draft. In this way, they lost important assets for a very controversial player who will also be a free agent this summer.
Much has been said about his departure from Dallas at the end of this season, but the truth is that Irving wants to renew with the Mavericks. Of course, he wants to renew in style, because the Texas franchise can offer him a greater amount of money than any other. And this is what the point guard aspires to, to sign one of his last big contracts in the league.
The contract that Irving demands to renew
Due to the achievements he has achieved during his time in the NBA, Kyrie Irving is aiming for a maximum contract. We are talking about a contract that could be around 50 million dollars per season. This is a big problem for the Dallas Mavericks, which is forced to accept these conditions in order not to lose a player in vain.
And it is that, in case of not doing it, they would have given Finney-Smith, Dinwiddie and a first round for just a few months. That is why they will have no choice but to accept Kyrie Irving’s conditions to renew and compromise your salary margin in the long run. Thus, it is estimated that the Dallas Mavericks could offer him a four-year renewal at a rate of about 190 million dollars.
