The Dallas Mavericks have signed Naji Marshall to a three-year, $27 million deal, marking a significant addition to their roster. Marshall, who spent the last four years with the New Orleans Pelicans, has developed into a strong defensive player with improving offensive statistics, averaging 7.1 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.9 assists per game last season. His efficiency has notably increased, with a career-high field goal percentage of 46.3% and three-point shooting at 38.7%. The Mavericks, who recently reached the NBA Finals, look to Marshall to bring energy and defensive prowess to complement stars Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving. This move comes amid their pursuit of other high-profile free agents like Klay Thompson. Marshall's role is expected to grow, especially with Derrick Jones hitting free agency.
