Josh Green’s current focus is on suiting up for Australia at the 2023 FIBA World Cup later this month. But the Dallas Mavericks wing admitted that he’s hopeful for a contract extension in the NBA, as well.
“I’ve really just focused on this. Whatever happens kind of happens. Obviously, it’s a cool feeling to be in that situation but, at the same time, I put so much work to be able to be in this position now, that you wanna continue to work,” Green said. “I hope it happens. I want to be in Dallas. I love Dallas. I love the fanbase, love the guys. To think I could be in Dallas long-term would be amazing.”
Green is eligible for a rookie scale extension until the end of the NBA offseason in late-October. If no extension is reached, Dallas can make Green a restricted free agent in the summer of 2024.
Jamal Murray To Miss World Cup To Recover For Next SeasonJamal Murray To Miss World Cup To Recover For Next Season
Jamal Murray has decided to not play for Team Canada in the 2023 FIBA World Cup. Murray cited the necessity to recover from last season’s long NBA title run as the reason.
“When I came into training camp, I wanted to see how my body would respond after a long and demanding season and if I would be physically able to compete at the highest level required for the World Cup,” said Murray.
“In consultation with medical staff and the team, it is clear that additional recovery is required, and I have made the difficult decision to not participate in the tournament. It’s still a dream of mine to represent Canada at the Olympics, and I will support the team every step of the way as they pursue this goal.”
Canada opens Group H play at the World Cup against France. Group H also includes Latvia, who will be without NBA star Kristaps Porzingis, and Lebanon.
