  "summary": "Veteran NBA big man Dwight Powell is expected to join the Dallas Mavericks for training camp despite the team already having a full roster. According to NBA insider Marc Stein from The Stein Line, Dallas has extended a formal training camp invitation to Powell, despite the Mavericks currently having 15 players on standard NBA contracts. Powell, who remains an unrestricted free agent after his contract with the Mavericks expired this summer, has expressed interest in playing at least one more NBA season. The 35-year-old has been in contact with Dallas throughout the offseason and has remained connected to the franchise since being acquired from the Boston Celtics in December 2014.",
