The Dallas Mavericks are widely considered the team most likely to persuade DeAndre Jordan to leave the Los Angeles Clippers this offseason.

The New York Knicks and Los Angeles Lakers also figure to express interest in Jordan.

Chandler Parsons, who regards himself to be Dallas' lead recruiter on free agent matters, visited Jordan in Houston last weekend and traveled to Los Angeles immediately after Thursday's draft to spend more time with the big man.

Jordan and Parsons are both represented by Dan Fegan.

If the Mavs are unsuccessful recruiting Jordan, sources say, they will attempt to re-sign veteran center Tyson Chandler.
