Devin Harris Wants Long-Term Deal With Mavs 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Fri May 9, 2014 4:50 pm

Devin Harris would like to re-sign with the Dallas Mavericks, but he would like to sign a multi-year deal.


Harris initially agreed to a three-year, $9 million contract with the Mavericks last summer, but it was pulled when they discovered an issue on the big toe of his left foot. 


The Mavericks eventually signed Harris to a one-year deal worth $1.3 million.


Harris would like to have that three-year, $9 million deal back.


“Obviously I don’t really know where [the negotiations] will go,” Harris said. “My intent is to come back, but like I said, only time will tell.


“I would rather not [sign a one-year deal]. It’s kind of tough to do, especially coming off surgery.”

Might not be many takers for a long-term deal considering his injuries, he can be a good support-type player if he can remain healthy.

He needs to be signed for the minimum. Health is the concern.

If he thinks he's going to see $3M/yr after the last 5 years of injury-plagued ball, this guy is in for a disappointment. I wouldn't pay him more than $1M/yr and that's generous... Can't rely on him one bit.

Did you guys see the playoffs? He was very good against the Spurs. I think 3years 5-8million is a fair deal.
