Mini Biography

Jason Eugene Terry is a professional basketball player currently signed with the Dallas Mavericks of the National Basketball Association (NBA). He was born in Seattle, Washington on September 15, 1977.

Terry primarily plays as a shooting guard, although on occasions he will be given the ball to play as the point guard. Offensively, he relies on quick speed and jump shots to score, often scoring off the dribble.

At the start of the 2004-05 season, the Mavs brought in Terry, along with Erick Dampier, Jerry Stackhouse, and Devin Harris. The new roster strengthened the team defense, and the former run-and-gun style by playmaker Steve Nash shifted to a more careful and balanced style of play. As a result, the team became a better championship contender that season, and easily clinched a playoff berth with a 58-24 record. However, they were swept aside in the 2005 NBA Conference Semifinals by the Nash-led Phoenix Suns 4-2.

Terry's nickname "JET" is derived from his initials. He wears size 12½ basketball shoes.
