Rumor: Charlotte Hornets contact the Dallas Mavericks to help facilitate Kemba Walker trade

According to Mike Fisher of Scout.com, the Charlotte Hornets have contacted the Dallas Mavericks about facilitating a trade involving Kemba Walker. The talks aren’t about Kemba going to the Mavs but about Dallas being a team that could help complete a potentially bigger trade with another team by taking on a salary.

If the Mavericks were to get involved in a potential deal surrounding Walker, it sounds like they would be the third team in a three-team trade. They would take one of Charlotte’s larger contracts and possibly get a pick or two in return while Kemba would be shipped off to a different team.
