Kyrie Irving Contract & Salary

Kyrie Irving is on the books for $39,491,282 in 2026–27, the 1st largest cap hit on the Dallas Mavericks roster and 22.3% of the team's $177.2M payroll.

That ranks 44th among the 444 players with a 2026–27 salary on the books, and eats 23.9% of the $165.0M salary cap.

The deal has 2 seasons left on it, running through 2027-28, worth $81,907,844 in guaranteed money.

The money climbs as it goes: $39,491,282 in the first year up to $42,416,562 in the last, a 7% rise across the deal.

Not every year is locked in: 2027-28 player option.

The option year belongs to the player, not the team — he decides whether to take the money or return to the market, so the team cannot count on it either way.

At 34, he is on the far side of the aging curve, and the deal still has him on the books through age 35.

No teammate earns more — he is the highest-paid player on the roster for 2026–27.

He is one of 15 players on the Dallas Mavericks' books for 2026–27, whose 2026–27 salaries add up to $177,194,562.

Dallas Mavericks sit at $177.2M in payroll and are currently classified Over Cap, with +$19.3M of room below the first apron.
