Dante Exum is back in the United States, since the Dallas Mavericks offered him a one-year, guaranteed contract for next season.

NBA insider Marc Stein added that Exum took the minimum deal.

He spent the last two season playing in Europe. He played for Barcelona in 2021-22 and then for Partizan last season. With Partizan, Exum averaged 12.2 points on 52/39/85 shooting splits.

After a complicated first stint in the NBA, Exum will have another chance to make it in the world's best league.

Indeed, with a guaranteed contract whose outlines remain unknown, Dallas convinced him to re-cross the Atlantic after two seasons in Europe. At nearly 28, the former Jazz and Cavaliers player is coming out of a generally successful European experience in Barcelona and then Belgrade. With his defensive qualities, he will have a card to play in the Mavericks ' back-court, behind Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving.

No doubt that the recent arrival of Dennis Lindsey in the Texan organization chart as the new front office adviser also lured the Aussie guard-forward, since Exum was selected with the No.5 pick in the 2014 Draft by the Jazz.
