The Dallas Mavericks are expected to open training camp on Sept. 30 at SMU.
Coach Rick Carlisle said Friday that going through two-a-day practices at the Mustangs' new $13-million practice facility would be a big plus for the Mavericks.
"It's sensational," Carlisle said. "We're going to have access to two full courts and with 18 or however many guys we have in camp, I just feel it's a good situation to have your camp somewhere that's a little different.
"I have a relationship with [SMU basketball coach] Matt Doherty and Mark [Cuban] has given SMU an opportunity to host us. It's great for them and really great for us."
SMU officials said the arrangement has not been finalized.
