Mavericks unruffled by Jalen Brunson, Knicks tampering inquiry
The NBA is investigating the New York Knicks for tampering with Jalen Brunson. The Knicks signed Brunon to a four-year, $104 million contract on June 30th. Dallas Mavericks have traded Christian Wood to the Rockets and traded Boban Marjanovic, Sterling Brown, Marquese Chriss, and Wendall Moore Jr. to Minnesota. JaVale McGee signed a three- year, $17.2 million deal with Dallas in July.
Mavericks are not worried by the tampering investigation involving Jalen Brunson. The team president Leon Rose is a former agent of Brun's father Rick. William Wesley, the Knicks executive vice president, watched Brunon play in the Mavericks’ first round playoff series against the Utah Jazz. The NBA is also investigating the Philadelphia 76ers to determine if tampering occurred with the re-signing of James Harden and the additions of P.J. Tucker and Danuel House Jr.
