The Dallas Mavericks matched the New York Knicks’ two-year, $4.7 million offer sheet for restricted free-agent center Moussa Cisse, keeping the 6-foot-11 big man in Dallas, per Shams Charania of ESPN. Cisse signed the Knicks’ sheet on Saturday, and the Mavericks matched well ahead of Monday’s deadline. The first season is half-guaranteed and 2027-28 is non-guaranteed. Under the matching rules, Cisse cannot be traded for one year without his consent, and cannot be dealt to New York during that window.
There’s no fantasy relevance here in redraft formats — Cisse projects as frontcourt depth behind Dallas’s established bigs, not rotation minutes. Only the deepest dynasty leagues need note him as a speculative center stash.
