Rumors: Mavericks interested in signing NBA Champion guard to contract
The Dallas Mavericks are officially down to one final roster spot, and fans are speculating about who Dallas could sign to solidify their roster heading into next season.
While someone from their Summer League team could end up taking the final roster spot, it seems more likely that the Mavs scour the free agent marketplace for a backup guard to come off the bench.
It has been rumored for multiple weeks now that the Mavericks are looking to add another guard with their final roster spot, and while the frontrunner looks to be Spencer Dinwiddie, a different player who is a one-time NBA Champion has joined the mix.
According to NBA insider Marc Stein, the Mavericks have shown interest in signing Talen Horton-Tucker (subscription required), who played the last two seasons for the Utah Jazz. Horton-Tucker is entering his sixth season, and he spent the first three seasons with the Los Angeles Lakers in which he won the NBA Finals in 2020.
