The Mavericks will be interested in free-agent point guards Jarrett Jack and Jerryd Bayless, a source tells Dwain Price of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram.
Both players were integral parts of their team's playoff success, Jack for the Warriors and Bayless with the Grizzlies, who are down 2-0 to the Spurs. Jack and Bayless are also due hefty raises this offseason with Jack possibly commanding as much as $10 million annually. The Mavs are in desperate need of an upgrade at point guard and could look at Jack or Bayless as fallback options if they fail to land Chris Paul. One thing's for sure, the Mavs' fervent interest in free-agent guards doesn't bode well for incumbent Darren Collison. May 23 - 5:27 PM

Bob Myers is hopeful the Warriors can work out a way to re-sign unrestricted free agent Jarrett Jack.

Jack proved his value to the Warriors this season and professed his love for the team, but he's going to draw a ton of interest in free agency and may have priced himself out of the Warriors' plans. Jack could command as much as $7-$10 million annually on the open market, especially if a team needs a starting point guard, and the Warriors have their hands tied in how much cash they can throw at him. If the Warriors lose Jack, it will be very difficult to replace him.

Stephan Curry said he's been trying to convince Jarrett Jack to re-sign with Golden State for a while.

"This is the place for him," Curry said. "He's bounced around a lot. For him to have hopefully found a home here for the foreseeable future would be huge. I know he wants to be part of a winning team, and I think we have that here now." Jack, who is scheduled to be a free agent again this summer, apparently agrees. The veteran point guard reiterated after Golden State's Game 6 loss that he clearly wants to be back in Golden State. The question is whether the Warriors can afford to give Jack the raise he'll definitely be looking to get.

Jarrett Jack reiterated his desire to return to the Warriors after the Game 6 loss to the Spurs.

"Usually before I would do any media, I would make sure I was dressed a certain way. I brought one of my best suits. But looking down at this jersey, it’s just a sense of pride I don’t think I’ve ever felt as a professional. … Nothing in my closet is better than what I have on now," Jack said. It's an emotional statement, but a telling one considering how much Jack went on the record about loving the Warriors this year. Jack's future is uncertain as an unrestricted free agent looking for a raise.
May 17 - 9:42 AM

Jarrett Jack scored 15 points with two boards, one assist, two steals and no turnovers in 32 minutes against the Spurs on Thursday.

His contract is up and he'll be an unrestricted free agent this summer. Jack made it clear that he's capable of being a starting point guard and was one of the best sixth men in the NBA. The Warriors and Jack haven't made much progress in bringing him back, so he could be on a new team for next season.
May 17 - 1:32 AM

Jarrett Jack shut down contract extension talks with the Warriors during the season, multiple sources told the Contra Costa Times.

The Warriors apparently broached Jack during the season, but he chose to focus on this year and wait until the offseason to focus on his contract. By doing so, he's earned himself more money and it will be very difficult for the Warriors to retain him. Jack is a proven difference-maker off the bench, and has the report notes, he's been an "integral part of the Warriors' success this season."
May 3 - 9:23 AM

Jarrett Jack twisted his ankle late in Game 5, but stayed in the game to finish with 20 points, six boards, five assists, a steal and two 3-pointers on 7-of-16 shooting.

He also had six turnovers, but at least his ankle injury doesn't appear to be too serious. Check back for updates on his status prior to Thursday's Game 6 at Golden State.
Apr 30 - 11:10 PM

Jarrett Jack is not thinking about his impending free agency.

"I believe everything will work out," he said. "I want to be here and if they want me here, it will work out." The Warriors face financial hurdles in retaining Jack long-term after the season he's had, and there will be plenty of clubs that show at least a preliminary interest in Jack when he hits the open market.
Apr 29 - 9:09 AM

Jarrett Jack hit 8-of-9 shots, 1-of-1 3-pointers and 4-of-4 free throws for 21 points, five rebounds, nine assists and a block in Sunday's impressive Game 4 win over the Nuggets.

Andrew Bogut was inspiring early, dunking over JaVale McGee and racking up 12 points, five rebounds, a steal and two blocks on 6-of-9 shooting, while Draymond Green was also impressive with 13 points, six boards, two assists, four steals, a block and two 3-pointers on 5-of-8 shooting. Carl Landry also got it done in limited action, racking up 17 points and one rebound in just 18 minutes. The Warriors are clearly in control with a 3-1 lead, but have to face the Nuggets in Denver on Tuesday.
Apr 29 - 12:34 AM

The Warriors confirmed that Jarrett Jack will start if Steph Curry (ankle) can't play Friday.

Curry is hopeful he'll be able to play, but he's shaping up as a true game-time call. "It would kill me," he said of not playing. The Warriors do have one of the best backup point guards in the league in Jack. In four starts this year, he averaged 18.8 points, 8.3 assists and 2.5 rebounds as Golden State went 2-2.

Jarrett Jack played 23 minutes but finished with just four points, four boards and two assists on 2-of-8 shooting in Tuesday's win.

He also picked up a flagrant foul for clocking Andrei Kirilenko in the head. The bottom line is that when Stephen Curry and Klay Thompson are both hot, as they were tonight, Jack will take a backseat.
Apr 10 - 1:43 AM

Jarrett Jack had 19 points and eight assists as the Warriors knocked off New Orleans on Wednesday, improving their record to 43-32.

Jack drained 8-of-11 shots (including one 3-pointer) in 36 minutes of action. Interestingly, Jack has played more minutes in the fourth quarter than any other player in the NBA this season.
Apr 4 - 1:18 AM

Jarrett Jack had 14 points and seven assists on 6-of-11 shooting in 31 minutes of Wednesday's loss to the Spurs.

Jack has been slumping a bit lately, but is still seeing plenty of minutes. He put up some decent numbers tonight and we're guessing he's going to be more consistent going forward.
Mar 21 - 2:26 AM

Mark Jackson explained his reasoning behind Jarrett Jack finishing games in place of rookie Harrison Barnes by saying, "it's the best lineup."

No arguments from us, as Jarrett Jack is a legitimate contender for the Sixth Man of the Year Award. Jackson made it clear that Jack is "proven," but he also stated that he has "no problem at all trusting Harrison." The second quote is more lip service for the rookie than anything else, and Jack will continue to play an integral role down the stretch for the W's.
Mar 18 - 9:13 AM

Jarrett Jack scored 20 points on 7-of-15 shooting with four rebounds, one assist and one steal as the Warriors got trounced at home by the Bulls in a 113-95 loss on Friday.

David Lee was the only other Warriors player to escape on the stat sheet, scoring 15 points with eight rebounds, two steals and one block. Klay Thompson hit 3-of-9 shots (no threes) for seven points and three assists, and Stephen Curry hit just 2-of-13 shots (no threes) for eight points and four assists. The Warriors are reeling as early season commentary by the media saying they had 'arrived' was clearly premature.
