In a Wednesday night conference call with team officials before Orlando's game in San Antonio, after indications to the contrary earlier in the day, Howard firmly told the Magic he is not prepared to surrender the option in his contract that allows him to become a free agent at season's end. Magic spokesman George Galante confirmed the conference call to the Associated Press on Wednesday night after ESPN.com, citing sources with knowledge of the call, reported that Howard and agent Dan Fegan clarified their position with Magic CEO Alex Martins, owner Rich DeVos and other members of the DeVos family on the line.

Fegan then added in a statement to ESPN.com that Howard only did so in conversations with teammates and team officials earlier Wednesday because he had been warned by the Magic that they would definitely trade him this week if he didn't take that step. "Dwight has chosen not to waive his ETO under pressure from the team that he might be traded," Fegan said. "However, Dwight expressed once again on a call today with the DeVos family and Alex Martins that he very much desires to pursue a championship this year with the Magic. Dwight also expressed that he had no intention of leaving the Magic high and dry at the end of the season." ESPN.com

The Mavericks have a lavish operation, a player-friendly owner and almost enough cap space almost in hand. Both D’s are OK with the Mavs. A Third D, Dan Fegan, Howard’s agent, is all but joined at the hip with Mark Cuban and Coach Rick Carlisle. SheridanHoops

Another team has lurked in the weeds all along: Dallas, which let Tyson Chandler, Caron Butler and J.J. Barea leave, sacrificing this season but putting the Mavs in position to create a max slot. Into that slot, presumably, would go Williams, a Dallas native. Of course, it could also accommodate Howard, whose agent, Dan Fegan and owner Mark Cuban are, as a source noted, “as close as any owner and any agent are.” SheridanHoops
