The Mavericks have signed free agent guard D’Moi Hodge, according to Grant Afseth of Dallas Hoops Journal (via Twitter). The terms of the deal were not revealed, but it’s likely a non-guaranteed Exhibit 10 contract.
Hodge played seven games with the Lakers during the 2023/24 season after going undrafted in 2023. He averaged 2.0 points in 5.9 minutes during that time, then played last season for Aris Thessaloniki in the Greek League, averaging 7.1 points, 1.9 assists, and 1.5 steals in 15 EuroCup games.
Hodge has struggled with consistency as a shooter, but did make 35.4% of his three-point attempts in 30 G League games during his rookie season.
Should he be waived by the Mavericks and proceed to spend at least 60 days with the team’s G League affiliate, the Texas Legends, Hodge could earn a bonus worth up to $85,300.
Once Dennis Smith Jr.‘s contract is officially finalized, Dallas will have a full 21-man offseason roster.
