Chandler Parsons said he would have re-signed with the Dallas Mavericks for ‘a lot less’ than a maximum contract this past offseason in an story with ESPN’s Tim MacMahon.
Parsons ended up signing a four-year, $94.8 million max contract with the Memphis Grizzlies this summer after the Mavericks didn’t even offer him a contract. Mark Cuban pushed Parsons to opt into the final year of his 3-year, $46 million deal he signed with Dallas in 2014, but did so unsuccessfully. After that, Parsons was reportedly iced out by Cuban and the Mavericks.
