League sources tell The Stein Line that the Mavericks, fresh off plummeting from the Western Conference finals into the lottery, are in advanced discussions to hire former Utah Jazz lead decision-maker Dennis Lindsey to join the organization as a special assistant to general manager Nico Harrison.
Dallas’ front office is headed by Harrison and assistant general manager and former Mavericks All-Star guard Michael Finley — with the longstanding involvement, as seen since he bought the franchise in January 2000, from Mavericks owner Mark Cuban. Harrison’s most recent two hires came from the Brooklyn Nets: Senior director of pro personnel Matt Riccardi and senior director of salary cap and strategy Andrew Baker.
Sources say Harrison has been looking for an experienced sounding-board voice to join the Mavericks in a consultant’s role dating to last offseason.
