The Mavericks next will sign guard Justin Dentmon from their own D-League affiliate to a 10-day deal, most likely finalizing a contract with the Texas Legends’ leading scorer Monday, sources with knowledge of the situation told ESPN.com’s Marc Stein.
Dentmon was averaging 26.0 points through 22 games with the Legends and was the D-League’s MVP last season while playing for the San Antonio Spurs‘ affiliate in Austin, earning call-ups from both the Spurs and Toronto Raptors.
Wright, who had left the locker room before the media were allowed in Friday, was diagnosed with MS while playing for a Turkish professional team last year. After going to training camp with the New Orleans Hornets, Wright earned a D-League all-star bid while playing for the Iowa Energy before being called up by the Mavs last week.
