The Dallas Mavericks have officially re-signed center Daniel Gafford to a new contract, securing the promising big man’s future with the team. The deal comes after Gafford’s strong contributions during the 2023-2024 NBA season, where his defensive presence and athleticism made him a key asset in the Mavericks’ rotation.
Details of the contract have not been fully disclosed, but sources indicate that it includes a multi-year commitment, highlighting the Mavericks’ belief in Gafford’s potential to grow within their system. Gafford, known for his shot-blocking and rim-running ability, has steadily improved since being traded to Dallas, earning praise from coaches and teammates alike.
“Daniel has been a vital part of our team, especially on the defensive end. His work ethic and energy are invaluable, and we’re excited to see him continue to develop with us,” said Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd in a statement.
Gafford’s re-signing helps solidify the Mavericks’ frontcourt depth as they aim to build a roster capable of competing at the highest level. His chemistry with stars like Luka Dončić and Kyrie Irving will be crucial as the Mavericks look to contend in the Western Conference.
Fans can expect Gafford to play an even bigger role in the upcoming season, as he continues to refine his offensive game while remaining a dominant force in the paint.
