DALLAS -- Dallas Mavericks free agent guard Steve Nash reached a verbal agreement on Thursday to sign with the Phoenix Suns.

As first reported by ESPN.com's Marc Stein on Thursday afternoon, Nash agreed to a six-year package worth more than $65 million -- with the sixth season partially guaranteed and the Suns holding a team option for the full amount in Year 6.

"It's exciting, but it's also bittersweet," Nash told ESPN.com about the move back to Phoenix. "I'm really sad to leave my teammates, but I'm glad to be going somewhere where they really wanted me."

Suns spent freely, but Mavs may pay in end


Value of luring Nash not about cash

Many have argued the Suns' five-year, $65 million offer was too generous.

Here's a better argument: Who signed the best point guard available? The Suns have Nash, and the Mavericks don't.
