Dallas Mavericks Sign Corey Brewer

According to Marc Stein, the Mavericks will sign Corey Brewer once he clears waivers.

Deal will start in $2 million range. Mavs capitalize on fact they could outspend Spurs and Celts, who made strong impressions on Brewer

This is excellent news and gives the Mavericks an excellent combination of Peja (all offense/no defense) and Brewer (all defense/no offense) at the 3 guard until Butler comes back from injury.

↵

Brewer will provide the Mavericks with an additional option to throw at Manu Ginobili, Kobe Bryant, Kevin Durant etc. come playoff time and a rotation of Marion and Brewer ensures a solid defender on them at all times.

I assume this signals the end of Peja Stojakovic in the starting lineup as Brewer should be the starting small forward upon arrival.

UPDATE:  It appears to be a 3 year deal between 7 and 8 million dollars.
