The NBA’s Brooklyn Nets, Dallas Mavericks and New Orleans Pelicans have expressed interest in free-agent guard Mario Chalmers, ESPN’s Marc Spears reported on Tuesday.
Chalmers, a 32-year-old, nine-year NBA veteran out of Kansas, averaged 7.7 points and 3.0 assists in 66 games with Memphis last season. He had missed the entire 2016-17 campaign while rehabbing from a torn Achilles tendon.
Chalmers won NBA championships with the Miami Heat in 2012 and 2013. He won an NCAA title at KU in 2008.
“I know I’ll be on a team next year. I’m not worried about that part,” Chalmers said in a recent interview with The Star.
