REPORT: Dallas Mavericks signing McKinley Wright IV to training camp deal

REPORT: McKinely Wright IV will join the Dallas Mavericks on a training camp deal

Following a rookie season spent mostly in the G League, McKinley Wright IV is reportedly not returning for the Minnesota Timberwolves. Instead, according to The Athletic’s Shams Charania, the Colorado men’s basketball great is going to Dallas on a training camp deal.

Wright appeared in just five NBA games last season but in the G League, he averaged 19.1 points and 7.7 assists in 18 games for the Iowa Wolves.

The Mavericks are coming off a run to the Western Conference Finals, led in part by fellow former Buff Spencer Dinwiddie. If Wright can impress in training camp and make the roster, Dallas’ backcourt could be fun to watch for Buffs fans.
