The Dallas Mavericks are among several teams showing interest in Charlotte Hornets star Kemba Walker, sources told The Athletic's Shams Charania.
Hornets owner Michael Jordan, however, "has a desire" to re-sign the two-time All-Star and the team remains intent on keeping the 28-year-old in Charlotte, Charania reports, citing sources.
Several teams reportedly approached the Hornets about Walker last summer but were informed he was off the table.
Walker - a pending unrestricted free agent - is in the midst of another All-Star campaign, averaging a career-high 25.0 points, 4.3 boards, and 5.6 assists per contest.
The 22-24 Hornets occupy the final playoff spot entering Wednesday's play.
