Throughout his 14-year NBA career, J.J. Barea has been a model of consistency — the 5-foot-10 guard has mostly come off the bench to dish dimes, score a bit and hit from distance. He was always a leader in the locker room.
That’s it. Nothing more, nothing less. That’s extremely valuable in the NBA, and Mark Cuban knows it.
Barea’s spent 11 seasons with the Dallas Mavericks and helped them to win a title in 2011 with his performance in the NBA Finals. This fall, he re-signed with the Mavs for one year and $2.6 million … and now, per ESPN, he’s going to be released.
Why would the Mavericks do that after giving him millions to stay? The reported answer is awesome…
That’s right: Cuban gave him a $2.6 million thank-you. Amazing
Mark Cuban made the classiest move by giving Mavericks’ JJ Barea one last contract before
