JaVale McGee jumps ship to the Dallas Mavericks for 3 years, $20 million

The 7-foot big man was set to be the biggest unrestricted free agent from the Phoenix Suns this offseason, and JaVale McGee found his new home pretty early in the process.

It’s reportedly a three-year deal worth $20.1 million with a player option ahead of the third year. This comes out to roughly the full tax-payer mid-level exception that the Suns will likely use elsewhere.

Yahoo’s Chris Haynes broke the news following Arizona Sports’s John Gambadoro leaving breadcrumbs earlier in the day about the move possibly happening.
