Tyson Chandler is anticipating his one-season tenure with the Mavericks may be over.

"I really think I'm going to be on a new team come training camp," Chandler told ESPN.com in a telephone interview Wednesday night. "I'm really taking a hard look at all of my options, trying to see what best suits me."

Chandler admitted for the first time that he's disappointed by the club's decision not to offer him a contract extension.

NBA front office sources list New Jersey, Golden State, Houston and Toronto as the teams pursuing Chandler hardest.

Goran Dragic is close to signing a deal with Caja Laboral.

The Rockets acquired Dragic in a trade for Aaron Brooks before the February 2011 deadline.

Chase Budinger is close to a deal with Lokomotiv Kuban of Russia, according to his agent Kevin Bradbury.

"The deal is not done yet for Chase, but I think we're pretty close," Bradbury said. "It would be a wonderful opportunity for him to get to play competitive basketball while the NBA is locked out. We're going to be very aggressive to find our guys places to play during the lockout."

Aaron Brooks has agreed to a one-year deal with Guandong of the Chinese Basketball Association, according to sources.

Brooks is a popular player in China due to his tenure as a teammate with Yao Ming on the Rockets.

Brooks is a restricted free agent in the NBA and therefore will be able to fulfill his contractual obligation to play in China for the entire season.

Brooks was traded to the Suns in February.

Yao Ming is taking classes at Jiaotang University, one of the leading higher learning institutions in his hometown of Shanghai.

hopes to apply the knowledge to his business and public service ventures, which range from ownership of his hometown Shanghai Sharks professional basketball team to overseeing a multimillion-dollar charitable foundation.
