Knicks, Moussa Cisse agree to two-year offer sheet — but deal for Mavericks center far from complete

The Knicks are hoping to bring in another big man.

But they’ll have to wait at least another 48 hours to see if they’ve landed one.

The Knicks and Moussa Cisse have agreed to a two-year offer sheet, ESPN’s Shams Charania reported Saturday.

Since Cisse, a 6-foot-11 center, is a restricted free agent, his previous team, the Mavericks, will get the chance to match the offer over the next two days.

Charania reported that the Knicks’ agreement with Cisse is half-guaranteed for 2026-27 and non-guaranteed for 2027-28.

The 23-year-old made his NBA debut last season, averaging 4.5 points and 5.7 rebounds in 13.9 minutes per contest.

Born in Guinea, Cisse spent time playing for both St. Benedict’s Prep in Newark, N.J. and Christ the King in Queens.
