Dwight Powell has been waived by the Dallas Mavericks. The Mavericks already had 15 standard NBA contracts when they signed Powell to a one-year, partially guaranteed deal.

Powell was the longest-tenured player on the Mavs and averaged 3.3 points and 4.1 rebounds last season.

"Dwight was the consummate professional throughout his 12 seasons with the Mavericks and embodies everything you want in someone representing your organization," said Mavericks President of Basketball Operations Masai Ujiri. "He's a tireless worker, an incredible teammate and someone whose impact extends well beyond the basketball court and into the Dallas community. We are grateful for everything Dwight has contributed to this franchise. He will always be part of the Mavericks family, and Dallas will always be a home for him. We wish him nothing but the best in this next chapter."
