Rumors

Singleton Signs, Buckner Released and Greg Ostertag

The Mavericks signed Singleton to a year contract worth 1 million. Buckner was released, which was anticipated as Singleton is the 17th contract signed by the Mavericks for the next roster year. NBA limits the roster to 15 active players currently.

Other news is that Tim Thomas was injured in an off season pick up game. Hopefully this is not a serious injury that puts him out for some of the season or all of it. There are talks and rumors that Greg Ostertag would love to come out of retirement to play for the Mavericks. Ostertag is a native of the area, out of Duncanville. He was stated in saying he would love to end his career with the Mavericks as they were his team growing up and still are.

Mavs Interested In Boozer

Some more truth and rumors floating around Fannation is that the Mavericks are interested in Boozer.

I’m not sure how this would work out without them dealing with a 3rd team with existing players to involve a multiteam trade and deal.

Perhaps Josh Howard could be one of the players being dealt, along with maybe Stephen Jackson that’s been rumored as well. I don’t see them dealing Marion and some of the other players recently acquired.

Rumors: Mavs Trading For Stephen Jackson

A source from Fannation truth and rumors indicates Nellie is in discussions of trading Stephen Jackson to the Mavericks to save some salary cap.

I don’t know about anyone else but throw in a few contract players we don’t necessarily need and that would be a welcome addition to the Mavericks by putting them back into a contention for a title once again.

We could even dump Dampier on them and still be contenders in the West.

Jackson not only plays good defense but he averaged over 20 PPG for the Warriors the past two seasons.
