Nicolas Batum expected to meet with Dallas
Charlotte Hornets forward Nicolas Batum, an impending free agent, is expected to meet with the Dallas Mavericks.
The early consensus was Batum wanted to stay in Charlotte, but he's at least meeting with other teams. Dallas has been connected to several players this offseason, so expect them to make some splashy moves at some point.
Batum ranked 85th in the league with a -0.5 nERD in 70 games played this season. He averaged 14.9 points, 6.1 rebounds, 5.8 assists and 2.0 3-pointers on a 50.6 Effective Field Goal Percentage and career-high 21.4 Usage Rate.
