Mavericks Aim to Keep Shawn Marion

With that said, the Mavericks’ front office figures to have plenty of decisions to make as the team tries to return all six of its free agents to next year’s squad. And with (Dirk) Nowitzki and 37-year-old sixth man Vince Carter also set to hit the open market on July 1, the Mavs will have work to do in order to keep (Shawn) Marion in the fold.

“You know, Shawn was a key component of not only our current success but bringing a championship here,” Mavs president of basketball operations and GM Donnie Nelson explained. “You know, obviously, there’s lots of decisions on his side and on ours, but we would love to have him continue and ride off into the sunset with guys like Dirk and Vince.”
