“In the summer of 2025, the Mavericks will be able to offer Dončić the most expensive contract extension in league history, projected to be worth roughly $346 million over five years, per Spotrac. The same offseason, if Irving declines his player option and becomes a free agent, he could re-sign with the Mavs for a four-year deal worth approximately $240 million.”

Entire cap space wrapped up in 2 guys. Should they do it? Probably. Will it end well? Probably not.
Kyrie will be 34? 4 year deal? yeah…nah
Lakers sub has him mocked up in a lakers jersey signing for the vet min
At his age and with his injury history, surely the mavs are crazy to pay him that?
Unless they go to the finals again next year there is no way they’ll re-sign Kyrie for anything near 60M/y.
Thank you for using re-sign correctly
Some team has to step up and stop offering players 50-60M+ after the age of 36 right? Seems very risky
16ppg baby. Let’s do it.
I don’t think the mavs push him for that, he getting older and having trouble holding his own out there.
3/5ths of a billion for Luka and Kyrie. Insane.
Mavs dont care they will pay him
Wasn’t long ago redditors were squirming in their jim jams over 40mill contracts. Every year the max gets maxier
Kyrie’s third eye gonna wake up again as soon as he signs that contract.
Kyrie didn’t get a max contract now, hes definitely not getting one in a few years.
Another thing to note is that Mark Cuban is out. A new management is coming in. Are they willing to burn money to be contender or the new management is too cheap and will try to build something for the future (around Luka). But of course, Luka already tasted the finals and there is no way he will agree to a rebuild. If the new management mismanage this, there’s a very high chance Luka will be gone.
idk what other choices they realistically have, their cap situation is kind of fucked so they can’t really get a 3rd star next to Kyrie or Luka either.
He signed below max with the mavs while he’s still decent. Why do people expect that he will demand the max once he’s washed.
What makes Luka eligible for more money than tatum? Just the cap bigger next year ?
That is simply an unfathomable amount of money for two blokes to play basketball for a few years 😅
do it mavs. sign him to that contract. please.
Do not pay World B Flat that money/length of contract.
Kyrie just turned into Ramon Sessions during the finals. No way I’m giving him 240 mil. I’d rather just let him walk.
Didn’t be surprised if Kyrie fucks off to Portland or some random team after saying he wants to stay. Just a fair warning
Now I see why Cuban sold
He’s 32, he’s 6’2″. Track record for small guards in their mid 30’s is not good. They’d be insane to give him that money at that age.
They may have no other options. But they’d still be nuts to do it.
Kylie needs to retire 😎
Spurs pls save us
He’s been a great leader for the Mavs but they just can’t max Kai. His time is winding down.
I’m having a very difficult time comprehending these numbers… like $50-60 million a year seems like stupid silly numbers….it’s crazy to think about when back in like 2010 or whatever “a max contract” was like $112 million over 6 years or whatever
They should’ve just paid Brunson
Kyrie is going to catch a bigger, possibly longer deal and go right back to being himself. Retweeting out antisemitic propaganda, alienating his teammates and coaches, milking injuries, asking for trades.
They’ll have to deal with the new shitbag owners also, they don’t seem like the type who will spend freely.
