IRVING, Texas -- The Dallas Mavericks are finalizing paperwork to sign Japanese point guard Yuki Togashi.
The plan is for the 21-year-old Togashi, who stands 5-foot-6 and weighs 145 pounds, to spend the rest of the preseason with the Mavs before joining their D-League affiliate Texas Legends.
"It's going to be a great experience," Togashi said.
The Legends will automatically own Togashi's rights in the likely event that he is waived by the Mavs.
Togashi played the last season and a half in the Japanese pro league and was on the Mavs' summer league team.
