The Dallas Mavericks are down to one roster spot following the flurry of moves they have made in recent weeks. Though this spot may disappear soon, everyone is curious about who the Mavs could sign with their final roster spot.
Among the free agent rumors surrounding the Mavericks are those involving Spencer Dinwiddie and, most recently, Marcus Morris, for whom his brother Markieff is actively advocating.
From what he has been posting, Markieff seems to really want Marcus to join the Mavericks, but there might not be a spot on the roster for him.
Markieff Morris vows to sign a free agent contract with the Dallas Mavericks.
Markieff announced on X that “I’m coming back.” In response to a fan’s wish for him to return to the Mavs, he said, “I want bro to come with me.”
Given that Markieff is a free agent and that he appeared to have just assured Mavs supporters that he would be re-signing with them this summer, this is an intriguing development. Markief made a promise to the Mavericks last year, and it is something that every Mavericks supporter wants to see happen again.
Few people anticipated Markieff to pledge to re-sign with Dallas, but he appears certain that he will rejoin the Mavericks for the upcoming campaign.
Due to his presence on the bench and positive energy, Markieff emerged as a veteran leader for the Mavs during the previous season and won over many fans. Now, it appears that he may be the one to take the final roster spot for the Mavs.
At this stage of his career, Markieff would probably be content to return to the same position he held for the team during the previous season, despite only seeing 26 games.
Last season, he made so many contributions off the court that Jason Kidd even named him the team’s MVP. A leader and positive energy player like Markieff is essential for any team, but it might be difficult to convince his brother to move to Dallas as well.
Although they only have one available roster spot, Markieff is clearly eager to play with his brother in Dallas, where they have recently been linked to Marcus. In order to make room for Marcus on their 15-man roster, the Mavs would need to cut someone, so if they decide to re-sign Markieff, that is a move to watch.
