The beloved championship-winning point guard will be back in Dallas next year.
J.J. Barea has agreed to re-sign on a deal worth $6.8 million for two years, according to El Nuevo Dia, the highest circulating Puerto Rican newspaper.
Interest between the two parties has been rumored for some time as the Mavericks roster begins to take shape. Although the Heat were rumored to have interest in him early in free agency, Barea likely waited to see how the Mavericks' free agency played out and was interested in returning once the Mavericks landed Jordan.
