The Mavericks want James Singleton back, but owner Mark Cuban is upset that the forward has been dragging them along.
"Their roster is pretty full right now," Singleton told the Dallas Morning News. "It's about situations and where you fit in best. Several teams out there wanted to sign me to the same thing the Mavs want me to.
"If they think I'm holding out for more money, that's not what I'm doing. And if I do return, they know what I'm going to give them. Hopefully, things will get squared away in the next week or two."
Dallas isn't happy that Singleton is taking so long to decide whether or not to accept his qualifying offer.
"The fact that he hasn't to this point has us a little upset," Cuban said. "It means he is looking for any deal he can find, dragging us along rather than committing to us knowing that with the second year [as a Maverick] under his belt, he becomes an early-bird free agent next year.
"If he doesn't want to be here, we would rather he just revoke the qualifier and [let him] become a full free agent."
