The Mavericks are attempting to land Samuel Dalembert with the trade exception they received in the Tyson Chandler sign-and-trade with the Knicks.

It would be a sign-and-trade deal with the Sacramento Kings. While it’s not immediately clear what the Kings would want in return, they are known to covet outgoing Mavs guard J.J. Barea.

The Mavs hope to convince athletic, 6-foot-11 Dalembert to accept a lucrative one-year offer.
