I definitely think he could be back. I have been penciling him in for the room exception if the Mavs operate over the cap. That would give him a small pay bump (5 mil instead of 4) and they could do another 1+1. This would allow Mavs to add his 4 mil to the 30 ish they would create under the cap.
If the Mavs do operate over the cap then they probably just pick up his option. I have been penciling him in for the rMLE just bc its hard to find good players for that level of money and he fits the bill.
