Naji Marshall is locked in for the long haul with the Dallas Mavericks, signing a three-year, $52.2 million fully guaranteed extension — and switching his jersey number from 13 to 3. Since joining Dallas before the 2024-25 season, he’s blossomed into a vital piece, putting up career highs: 15.2 points, 3.3 assists, and 1.1 steals per game while shooting over 51% from the field — including eight 30+ point games, something he never achieved in New Orleans. The Mavericks’ president praised his daily competitiveness, toughness, and versatility as key to their rebuild. With a top draft pick like Cooper Flagg on the horizon and Kyrie Irving returning, Marshall’s veteran leadership could accelerate Dallas’ climb back to playoff contention.
