Charlie Villanueva reaches non-guaranteed deal with Mavericks

Charlie Villanueva was trying to get another NBA contract after finishing a disaster of a five-year deal and it was down to the Clippers and Mavericks.

He chose Dallas, reports Tim MacMahon of ESPNDallas.com.

The deal is non-guaranteed  — Dallas can cut him without a cost. Dallas has 15 players under guaranteed contract already (teams can only carry 15), plus a couple guys on partially guaranteed deals.
