The Dallas Mavericks are "significant frontrunners" for David Lee, who was just bought out by the Boston Celtics and will be free to sign with any NBA team after clearing waivers, per Yahoo's Shams Charania.
This is good news. The Mavericks didn't make a move at the NBA trade deadline, as anticipated, but there was always a good chance that they pursued someone on the buyout market. Lee is a veteran of three teams and should be able to quickly adjust to Dallas' system, a crucial aspect of any player the Mavericks bring in given that there's slightly less than two months left in the season.
