Dallas Mavericks are real threat to sign DeMarcus Cousins in 2018 NBA free agency

With few teams possessing the requisite cap space, DeMarcus Cousins will not have a lot of suitors during the upcoming free agency period at the start of next month; however, the Dallas Mavericks are expected to be one of the few knocking on his door and that should worry the New Orleans Pelicans.

It’s no secret that Cousins is firmly on Mark Cuban’s radar. The Dallas owner, who has chased numerous elite players during his time at the helm, called Boogie a top 10 talent in the league three years ago, and the Mavericks were reported to “be near the front of the line” about eleven months later, preparing to pounce if the Kings dropped the ball in upcoming contract negotiations.
