The Dallas Mavericks are currently in talks with guard Rodrigue Beaubois regarding his possible return to the franchise, league sources told ESPN's Marc Stein.
He reportedly had an audition for a roster spot on the New Orleans Pelicans, but they elected to sign Tim Frazier on a reported two-year, $4.1-million deal instead.
Beaubois, 28, was the 25th overall pick in the 2009 NBA draft by the Oklahoma City Thunder, who then traded him and a future second-round pick to the Mavericks in exchange for Byron Mullens.
Over the course of four seasons in the Lone Star State, the 6-foot-2 Frenchman averaged 7.1 points, 2.1 assists, and 1.9 rebounds over 182 appearances. He experienced a number of injuries during that span, including a fractured foot that kept him sidelined for six months in 2010-11.
He also underwent surgery to repair a fractured second metacarpal in his left hand near the end of the 2012-13 campaign.
In 34 appearances last season with French squad SIG Strasbourg, Beaubois averaged 16.2 points and 2.1 assists in 24.9 minutes.
