Tarık Biberovic Agrees to Terms With Dallas Mavericks
The reported deal would bring a top European three‑point shooter to Dallas but depends on resolving a roughly $2 million Fenerbahçe buyout under NBA limits.
Overview
- Multiple outlets report that Biberovic has reached a multi‑year agreement with the Mavericks and is expected to sign a two‑year, $6 million contract that includes a second‑year team option, though no official team or league announcement has been cited.
- Dallas holds Biberovic’s NBA rights after acquiring them in the trade that sent Santi Aldama away from Memphis, turning a 2023 draft‑and‑stash pick into an active roster target.
- His Fenerbahçe deal included a July 7 opt‑out, a deadline that reporting says created a compressed timeline for the agreement and pushed negotiations to close quickly.
- Reports indicate Fenerbahçe’s buyout is roughly $2 million while NBA rules cap team contributions at $900,000, leaving about $1.1 million to be covered by the player, the Turkish club, or a negotiated solution.
- Biberovic is a proven floor‑spacing specialist who helped Fenerbahçe win the 2025 EuroLeague title and shot roughly 42% from three in 2025–26, and the next steps are a final buyout resolution and a formal Mavericks signing before roster planning continues.
