AROUND the NBA: Pat Bev Suspended 4 Games Next Season| PHX Fires Vogel

Putting this in the NBA thread as it doesn't have to have a Mav's angle (but it might).

Karlos Matkovic's European team announced he's leaving for the NBA.  No details yet.  He's a late second round center.  He's more mobile than his draft position might indicate.  NO has his rights and has an open roster slot and enough space under the tax to sign him.  So, maybe end of story.

But, NO has been in some trade rumors with Vuc.  Also, Dallas's center is hurt right now and we have some MLE money left.  If NO traded us his rights (maybe for a second), we could use that to sign him if it took more than 2nd round money to get him from Europe.

He was playing for Slovenian team Olimpija, so I noticed the news in our media. He is going to NO g-league team, no guarantee of a contract with NO. At least this was my understanding from a little confused Slovenian reporting.
