Mavericks Acquire Nerlens Noel in Trade
Five Months After Noel Turned Down Contract Offer
Noel Had 16 Points and 11 Rebounds in Mavericks Debut
The Dallas Mavericks have acquired center Nerlens Noel in a trade with the Detroit Pistons, the team announced Monday. Noel, 28, was traded to the Pistons in June as part of a four-team deal that sent Kristaps Porzingis to the Washington Wizards. He had turned down a four-year, $70 million contract offer from the Mavericks in February.
In his Mavericks debut on October 18, 2017, Noel had 16 points and 11 rebounds in a 117-111 loss to the Phoenix Suns. It was his most points since joining Dallas. Noel is expected to play a significant role for the Mavericks, who are looking to improve on their 33-49 record from last season.
