Dallas is close to re-signing Yogi Ferrell.
The Mavericks rescinded the 25-year-old point guard’s qualifying offer, according to a report from Yahoo Sports. But, the team intends to ink Ferrell to a new deal, according to a report from ESPN.
Ferrell had been a restricted free agent.
Ferrell averaged 10.2 points and 2.5 assists in 82 games for Dallas last season. He also knocked down 37.3 percent of his 3-pointers.
Ferrell, who played collegiately at Indiana, wasn’t selected in the 2016 draft. He played 10 games for the Nets before he was signed by the Mavericks in January 2017.
The Mavericks finished 2017-18 with a 24-58 record and missed the playoffs for a second straight season. They signed DeAndre Jordan to a one-year contract, worth close to $24.1 million, when free agency began July 1.
