The Dallas Mavericks are looking for a big man to replace DeSagana Diop, who was part of the trade to acquire Kidd, Mavericks' owner Mark Cuban has told the Dallas Morning News.

"If somebody gets cut or there's a trade, a guy like [recently waived] Justin Williams at Sacramento, who is kind of like where DeSagana was a couple years ago, we'll take a look," Cuban said.

If no trade is made, the Mavericks may chase someone like Dale Davis, who has been out of the league and presumed retired.  But do not expect Cuban to contact P.J. Brown, who shares the same agent as Devean George and advised George to veto the original trade which would have bought Kidd to Dallas sooner.

"He's a Bartelstein guy, and all things being equal, we'd say no," Cuban said.
