Mavericks Won't Keep Chris Wright, Will Sign Justin Dentmon 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Sat Mar 23, 2013 10:50 pm

The Dallas Mavericks have decided not to give Chris Wright a second 10-day contract.


The Mavericks will next sign Justin Dentmon to a 10-day from their D-League affiliate, sources told ESPN's Marc Stein.


Wright appeared in three games for the Mavs, playing a total of four minutes. 


"He's been an inspirational figure to a lot of people," Rick Carlisle said. "He's an NBA-caliber player. There's no doubt about that. You do what he's doing -- playing a professional sport with MS -- that's going to be something that a lot of people pay attention to. It shows his motivation, his determination, but it also shows the progress that's been made in that area. 


"It's going to give people hope. That's a great thing."
