That might be accurate regarding the summer contract... But that does not prevent him signing a regular contract for the minimum (only exception they have left) during the season. As long as he does NOT sign with another team, and subsequently finishes the season on the roster under contract his years of service with the team would be considered continual.
Dallas did this (or discussed it) with Dirk about every other year in his last 4-5 years in order to create cap space - they would release his rights and sign him to cheaper contract (than his cap hold) and the next year they would sign him to a more deserving contract.
