The Dallas Mavericks agreeing to a four-year deal with Wesley Matthews wasn't a big risk for team owner Mark Cuban.
The 6-foot-5 shooting guard known as "Iron Man" has been banged up his entire NBA career, and he's still recovering from a torn left Achilles he suffered in March.
"We're not putting a timetable on it," Cuban said Friday on KTCK-AM 1310. "Like I told Wes, if he opens up with camp, great. If he starts the season, great. If he misses 30 games, great. I don't care because we didn't sign him for this year."
Mavs forward Chandler Parsons is also recovering from an injury that kept him from finishing the season in a first-round playoff loss to the Rockets, but Cuban is willing to wait as long as it takes to get his young core healthy.
"The goal isn't to try to rush them," Cuban said. "It's really to get them all healthy, which we know we can, and have them playing together and be something special for a lot of years as opposed to being worrying about the first 30 games of this season."
