Moussa Cisse could join New York in 48 hours

Restricted free agent Moussa Cisse has agreed to a two-year contract offer sheet with the New York Knicks, sources tell ESPN.

His salary is half guaranteed in the first year and 2027-28 is non-guaranteed. The Dallas Mavericks have 48 hours to match or not.

The Mavericks now have two days to decide whether to match the offer sheet and keep Cisse on their roster.

If they choose not to match, the 23-year-old center will join the Knicks under the agreed terms.

If Dallas matches the offer within the 48-hour window, Cisse will remain with the Mavericks on the same two-year contract.
