DALLAS (AP) \u2014 The Dallas Mavericks have re-signed restricted free agent Moussa Cisse in the wake of multiple reports that the second-year center had signed an offer sheet with the New York Knicks.<\/p>\n
The team didn’t disclose the terms in the deal announced Wednesday. According to multiple reports, the Mavericks matched the Knicks’ offer on a $4.7 million, two-year contract.<\/p>\n
Cisse went undrafted out of Memphis last year and spent the season with the Mavericks on a two-way contract. The 6-foot-11 Cisse gives Dallas depth at center behind Dereck Lively II and Daniel Gafford.<\/p>\n
Cisse tied Roy Tarpley’s Dallas rookie record of 20 rebounds in the 2025-26 season finale against Chicago. He averaged 4.5 points, 5.7 rebounds, 1.2 blocks and 13.9 minutes in 38 games with one start. Cisse was third among rookies in blocks per game.<\/p>\n
