Heard It Through the Grapevine

- Josh Howard has agreed to a one-year deal worth close to $4 million that will keep him in Washington for next season. For what it’s worth, John Wall seems pretty excited.
- Rodrigue Beaubois, through the wonder that is Google Translate: (via DOH at Mavs Moneyball) “The first part of the season I have not played badly but very quickly, without explanation, I stayed on the bench. I asked many questions, I began to cogitate before telling me that I had to take what they gave me without trying to understand too.”
- Also from DOH: Did you know Rodrigue Beaubois’ plane was apparently hit by lightning last week?
- Maverick cast-off Von Wafer appears headed to Boston on a one-year deal for the veteran’s minimum, and Mavs Summer Leaguer DeShawn Sims has be invited to Celtics training camp.
- Four current or former Mavericks have failed a physical.
- Rasual Butler, who had been linked to the Mavs as a free agent target, has agreed to terms and will sign with the Clippers.
