The Mavs don’t view Aminu as a reclamation project like Brandan Wright, another former eighth overall pick, was when he arrived in Dallas on a minimum-salary deal a few years ago.

Marion’s tenure in Dallas has almost certainly ended, but the Mavs have several players on the roster they believe are capable of playing quality minutes at power forward. Coach Rick Carlisle, who would like to cut Nowitzki’s minutes down to 30 per game if possible, listed Chandler Parsons, Al-Farouq Aminu, Jae Crowder and Richard...
