Unlike ’15-16, Mavs should have benefit of health entering training camp

DALLAS — Slowed by injuries to two of their top contributors before the 2015-16 schedule even began and again during the playoffs, the Dallas Mavericks now expect to hit the ground running when training camp gets underway in late September.

Seeing new addition Wesley Matthews battle back from a torn Achilles that ended his ’14-15 season, the Mavericks weren’t at full strength when they first came together for training camp last season. They also closely monitored the health of versatile small forward Chandler Parsons, who gradually worked his way back from a hybrid microfracture surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his right knee.
