Deron Williams is offering his New York penthouse on the market after moving from the Brooklyn Nets to the Dallas Mavericks.

The three-time NBA All-Star is selling his luxury apartment in the Big Apple for $33.5 million, reported the New York Post. This means that the athlete is hoping to cash in nearly an $18 million profit from his advertised estate, which he only bought for $15.8 million two years ago.

The 31-year-old basketball player has commissioned Andrew Azoulay of Douglas Elliman as his listing agent, noted the site.

NY penthouse features

The 6,800-square-foot unit is expansive enough to fit a family with children. It features six bedrooms where the next owners' close relatives or friends can stay while touring the city's landmarks. The athlete also customized the whole apartment and based on the photos, which the Post shared, several home buyers will find that the classic and earth-tone theme of the unit could fit their needs.

The penthouse also has a dramatic, floating staircase and a temperature-controlled wine storage room. Other living spaces included in the dwelling place are its four and a half bathrooms, a 3,000-square-foot terrace, and a bridge connecting to an area described as a "lily pad," noted Sporting News.

Dallas welcomes Williams back

Williams, who grew up in The Colony, a Dallas suburb, is back with the Mavericks after signing a two-year, $10 million deal from the team, the Associated Press reported. Even if he still had a $43 million worth of pay over the next two years of his five-year contract with the Nets, he "accepted a buyout of $27.5 million with payments to be spread over five seasons," sources told ESPN.com.

On Facebook, Dallas team owner Mark Cuban expressed his joy after Williams was officially added to their line-up this season.

"Welcome back home Deron Williams, the newest member of the Dallas Mavericks family! We are excited to have him and you should be too. Make sure to give him a Mavs welcome when you see him," Cuban wrote.

Even Mavs coach Rick Carlisle is delighted that he will be mentoring the player he admires.

"I'm a longtime fan. When this situation popped up, it was almost like it was too good to be true. He's a tremendous player, and he's coming home," Carlisle told ESPN.com.
