DEAL ACCEPTED: Los Angeles Lakers power forward LeBron James Signs a 4-year Contract With the Dallas Mavericks, worth $109 Million as their new…..

In a move that has sent shockwaves across the NBA, LeBron James has officially agreed to a 4-year, $109 million deal with the Dallas Mavericks, leaving the Los Angeles Lakers after six seasons. At 40 years old, the four-time NBA champion is not just continuing his career—he’s embarking on a bold new chapter as the Mavericks’ franchise cornerstone.

 

James, widely regarded as one of the greatest basketball players in history, will bring his leadership, experience, and still-dominant skills to a Mavericks team eager to contend for a title. The deal reportedly includes a partial no-trade clause and incentives tied to playoff performance and mentorship of younger players.

 

“This is more than just a business decision,” James said during a press conference in Dallas. “It’s about legacy, mentorship, and chasing one more ring with a group that’s hungry to win.”

 

The Mavericks’ front office is betting big on LeBron’s ability to elevate their already potent roster, which includes superstar Luka Dončić. The duo instantly becomes one of the most dynamic pairings in recent NBA history, blending LeBron’s veteran IQ and versatility with Dončić’s scoring and playmaking prowess.

 

Mark Cuban, owner of the Mavericks, called the signing “a historic moment for our franchise.” He added, “LeBron’s arrival signals our commitment to winning now and building a culture of excellence that lasts.”

 

James’ move to Dallas caps off a legendary stint with the Lakers, where he brought home the 2020 NBA Championship and became the league’s all-time leading scorer. With this new deal, LeBron is also set to surpass $500 million in total career earnings from NBA contracts alone.

 

The 2025-2026 season will now feature a Western Conference stacked with talent and drama, and all eyes will be on Dallas as LeBron begins what could be his final run for championship glory.
