Dallas Targets Quinton Ross

Shapecity · Jul 2, 2009

The Dallas Mavericks may not strike it rich in free agency, but they are becoming quite adept at adding quality role players. After scoring with Brandon Bass(notes) and James Singleton(notes) in recent summers, the Mavericks started this year’s free-agent season by making a strong pitch to Quinton Ross(notes), the former SMU and Kimball High School standout. Ross has been in the league for five years, the first four with the Los Angeles Clippers and last season with the Memphis Grizzlies. The 6-foot-6 guard has been a part-time starter throughout most of his career. While owner Mark Cuban was wining and dining Jason Kidd(notes) in New York during the first hours after free agency opened, coach Rick Carlisle and president of basketball operations Donnie Nelson were meeting with Ross in Dallas. Ross’ numbers (4.6-point career average) will never overwhelm anybody. But he has always been a good defender and can shoot the 3-pointer well enough to keep defenses honest. He shot 37.5 percent from beyond the arc last season."
