Chandler Parsons is in the process of becoming a bigger voice for the Dallas Mavericks and will attempt to recruit free agents.

“Shifting into GM mode,” Parsons said.

“I think it’s kind of like a known thing that I’d like to do that. I have a lot of good relationships with a lot of guys. Obviously now with the season just ended, I haven’t talked with them about who or what or whatever, but we’ll take a look here soon. I’ll be in Dallas pretty much all summer, so I’m sure we’ll have those conversations when the time comes.”

Parsons averaged 15.7 points and 4.9 rebounds this season and underwent knee surgery recently.

“I think we have a chance to make some noise next year," Parsons said. "Like I said, this year was a little frustrating, mostly just health wise. So my biggest goal right now is to do whatever I have to do [to rehabilitate his knee], no matter how long that’s going to be.”
