There was Nerlens Noel news on Monday, but this update wasn't about restricted free agent center Noel's contract-negotiation stalemate with the Mavericks.
At least not yet.
Noel replaced agent Happy Walters with a new one, Rich Paul of Klutch Sports. An NBA source confirmed the news, which first was reported by basketballinsiders.com.
Time will tell whether the change in agents will produce movement in contract negotiations with the Mavericks (and perhaps other teams) or whether it signals 23-year-old Noel's intention to dig in more deeply, if that is possible.
The Mavericks acquired 6-11, 220-pound Noel before last season's trade deadline.
