It's been a frustrating season for the Dallas Mavericks. The once always playoff-bound team has been at the bottom of the Western Conference in an injury-riddled season.

Now, it seems frustration may be boiling over for the Mavs.
It's been quietly rumoured that big man Andrew Bogut may be on the move. Bogut's in the final year of a three-year $36 million deal and will become a free agent in July.
All this isn't news to the former number one overall pick, and he made that clear on an appearance on Sky Sports Radio on Thursday (AEDT).
“Thankfully I’m a free agent here so I only have a couple of months more here and then will most likely move on," Bogut said. "I don’t see myself hanging around with everything that’s gone on. It will be an interesting six months ahead.”
The expiring contract is always of value for NBA teams, especially teams in the hunt of a Championship. A healthy Bogut could be a great asset to add for the stretch run.
“I’ve got a valuable contract ... having four months left on my contract I’m a valuable commodity to be moved.”
The Sixers, Blazers and Celtics have all been rumoured to have interest in Bogut, so it will be interesting to see if and when he is moved.
