Dallas Mavericks: Best Mavericks Players since 2000

#4 Jason Terry (2004-2012)

Jason "Jet" Terry of the Dallas Mavericks

Jason Terry was selected 10th overall by the Hawks in 1999 where he earned second team All-Rookie. After serving five seasons with Atlanta Hawks he came to Dallas Mavericks in 2004 and was to serve replacement for Steve Nash after the unpopular decision to let Nash leave in free agency. The guard quickly emerged as a fan favorite with his final quarter specialist stature and his signature "Jet" celebration, handling out arms, after draining in every shot.

On July 1, 2006, Terry and the Mavericks agreed on a six-year deal. Terry won the NBA's Sixth Man of the Year in 2008-09. He averaged 19.6 points, 2.4 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.3 steals in 33.6 minutes in 63 of 74 games he featured as sixth man. He was a pivotal force in Dallas' finals performances in 2006 and in 2011.

In 8 seasons that he played for the Mavericks, he averaged 16.1 points, 4.1 assists, 2.3 rebounds, 1.2 steals over 32.7 minutes.

Terry left the Mavericks to sign with the Boston Celtics as a free agent in July 2012. After playing for a year, he was traded to the Brooklyn Nets along with Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett for future draft picks. Thereafter, he played two seasons with the Houston Rockets from 2014-16 where he became the third player in NBA history to score 2000 three-pointers. He was then traded to Miwaukee Bucks and played two seasons. Now he is planning to enter BIG3 league.
