"Sources told ESPN.com the extension is a new five-year deal in the $35 million range that will make Carlisle the league's highest-paid coach among those without a dual executive role and will take him well into his second decade with the club.
Carlisle was widely believed to be in the final year of his second contract with the Mavs, but sources say the club actually held a little-known team option for the 2016-17 season. The new five-year deal will take effect in 2017-18 and span through 2021-22.
Carlisle released a statement Thursday evening confirming the extension.
"Mark Cuban, Donnie Nelson and Dirk Nowitzki are the reason an extension like this is possible. I have best owner and general manager in sports, and one of the greatest players in NBA history to thank for this opportunity. There is much work to be done as we move forward," the statement said.
