Reaches agreement with Dallas McGee and the Mavericks agreed to terms Thursday on a three-year, $20.1 million contract, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports. The third year is a player option.

Impact McGee had another productive season in 2021-22 with the Suns, appearing in 74 games and averaging 9.2 points, 6.7 rebounds and 1.1 blocks in 15.8 minutes per contest.
