The Mavericks have waived Yudai Baba, as Brad Townsend of the Dallas Morning News relays (via Twitter).
Baba played in three preseason games for the Mavericks. The Japanese shooting guard scored 2.3 points and 2.3 rebounds in 12.0 minutes per contest.
Baba was never expected to make the regular season roster for the Mavericks, though playing for the Texas Legends of the G League remains a possibility. Dallas’ roster now sits at 19 players.
Then brother Ali Baba got him back in by saying “open sesame”.
