Exum set for Mavs return as No.1 pick signs rookie deal
Australian guard Dante Exum is set to extend his NBA stint with the Dallas Mavericks, who have signed No.1 draft pick Cooper Flagg to his four-year rookie contract. Exum has reportedly shunned two other options in free agency and agreed to a one-year deal with the Mavericks. Kyrie Irving will be sidelined by a knee injury until at least mid-season, meaning Exum could be called on to play significant minutes in the back-court alongside new addition D'Angelo Russell. But the 29-year-old Melbourne product has to stay fit, after being sidelined by a wrist injury last season as his horror run of setbacks continued. Exum made just 20 appearances for the Mavs throughout the 2024/25 campaign, averaging 8.7 points, 2.8 assists, 1.7 rebounds and 0.6 steals in 18.6 minutes per game. Dallas will have to clear a roster spot to re-sign Exum, who was one of a record 15 Australians in the NBA last season. Another four - Rocco Zikarsky (Minnesota), Tyrese Proctor (Cleveland), Alex Toohey (Golden State) and Lachlan Olbrich (Chicago) - were selected at last month's draft. Flagg, meanwhile, has signed a deal worth about $US62.7 million, with a first-year salary of about $US13.8 million. There are team options in the third and fourth seasons of rookie deals. Flagg is set to feature in the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas this month, having joined the Mavs after they converted a 1.8 per cent chance to win the draft lottery. The 18-year-old led the Duke Blue Devils to the NCAA Final Four in his only collegiate season. He joins a Mavs front-court that should include 10-time All-Star Anthony Davis and promising young centre Dereck Lively II, Flagg's fellow Duke alum.

Mavs sign No. 1 overall pick Cooper Flagg to rookie contract; Exum is returning, AP source says
Associated Press DALLAS (AP) — The Dallas Mavericks have signed No. 1 overall draft pick Cooper Flagg to his four-year rookie contract, and a person with knowledge of the agreement said Wednesday the club is bringing back guard Dante Exum on a one-year contract. The team didn't disclose details in announcing Flagg's deal. The total value of the contract for the top pick on the 2025-26 rookie wage scale is in the range of $62.7 million, with a first-year salary of about $13.8 million, according to Spotrac. Those numbers can fluctuate slightly. There are team options in the third and fourth seasons of rookie deals. The Mavericks will have to clear a roster spot to re-sign Exum, the person told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because Dallas can't yet sign the eight-year veteran. Exum, who is set for his third season with the Mavs, will help fill the void in the backcourt while Kyrie Irving recovers from a torn ACL. Flagg said during his introductory news conference last week that he intends to play in the Summer League in Las Vegas later this month. The Mavericks' Summer League opener against the Los Angeles Lakers and Bronny James is set to be nationally televised on July 10. Flagg was taken with the top pick after Dallas converted just a 1.8% chance to win the draft lottery. The 18-year-old from Duke became the fourth freshman to win The Associated Press national player of the year honors in the 64-year history of the award. Flagg led the Blue Devils to the Final Four in his only season. The 6-foot-9 forward joins a frontcourt that should include 10-time All-Star Anthony Davis and promising young center Dereck Lively II, Flagg's fellow Duke alum. The Mavs shocked the NBA by sending 25-year-old superstar Luka Doncic to the Lakers for Davis in February. Irving is another former Duke player to go first overall in the draft, in 2011. He will be out, probably until at least midseason, while recovering from a torn ACL. Irving was injured in March. ___ AP NBA: recommended
