The Mavericks 7-5 rookie center Pavel Podkolzine could sign his rookie contract as early as Tuesday.

Podkolzine, who was selected by the Utah Jazz with the 21st overall selection in the June 24th Draft, was traded to the Dallas Mavericks that same night for a future first-round pick.

His deal will pay him $2.85 million over three years with the Mavericks holding a $1.62 million option for a fourth season.
