Slovenian NBA star player Luka Dončić signed a five-year, US$207 million supermax rookie extension with the Dallas Mavericks in what is the largest guaranteed rookie extension in NBA history, the biggest deal in Mavericks history and the biggest deal a Slovenian athlete has ever signed.
Thanking the team and everyone who has supported him along the way, Dončić said: “This is an incredible day for me. I’ve never expected this. I dreamt of playing in the NBA as a kid and now I have signed this deal.” He also said he had never doubted he would sign the extension with the Mavericks as he is very happy in Dallas.
