Jason Terry is growing fond of Boston, but he’ll always have love for Dallas.

And most likely, he’ll be back at some point.

“Dallas is still my home base,” Terry said before the Mavericks played the Celtics on Wednesday night. “I’m still a Maverick in my heart.”

He said he plans to be back with the Mavericks in a capacity to be determined. Owner Mark Cuban already has said Terry always will have a place in the franchise.

“I have no idea,” Terry said of what he would do. “But coaching is in my [future]. I know I want to coach at the college level.”

As far as playing for the Mavericks again someday, Terry said, “You never know. All the options are open.”
