In a strategic move aimed at fortifying their roster, the
Dallas Mavericks have decided to elevate two-way guard
AJ Lawson to a standard NBA contract, reports Elias Sbiet of @_tandemse, as relayed by ESPN. This transition comes as no surprise given Lawson's consistent and impressive performance both with the Mavericks and the Texas Legends in the G League. With 28 games under his belt for Dallas, Lawson has been a dynamic force, showcasing his scoring prowess and versatility on the court.
Averaging an impressive 20.7 points per game with the Texas Legends, Lawson has undoubtedly proven his worth and readiness for a full-time role in the NBA. His ability to seamlessly transition between the G League and the NBA speaks volumes about his adaptability and skill set. By securing Lawson on a standard NBA contract, the Mavericks are not only investing in the promising talent of this young guard but also bolstering their lineup as they aim for greater success in the league.
