Dallas is emerging as the frontrunner in pursuit of a deal to acquire Boston's Rajon Rondo, league sources tell Yahoo Sports.

Lakers and Knicks declined to be part of three-way deals that could've sent Rondo elsewhere, league sources tell Yahoo.

Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA
In Rondo talks, Boston and Dallas discussing package including Brandan Wright, Jae Crowder and a first-round pick, sources tell Yahoo.


quote:

Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA
Dallas' 2015 first-round pick is part of proposed Rondo deal, and there could be further draft considerations as part of a package.


quote:

Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA
There could be more players and picks involved in a larger deal, but those mentioned have been major part of talks, sources said.


quote:

Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA
Boston has reached the point of no return on a Rondo deal and Danny Ainge is moving fast toward sifting offers and making his best deal.


quote:

Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA
The reality is this: Rondo's value no longer dictates an All-Star in return, and waiting until the trade deadline won't improve packages.


quote:

Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA
Boston's informed teams it's focused on completing deal with Dallas soon, closing on a package to send Rajon Rondo to Mavs, sources tell Y.


quote:

Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA
Houston had dropped out of the talks in the past hour, clearing the way for Boston to complete deal with Dallas, sources told Yahoo.


quote:

Adrian Wojnarowski @WojYahooNBA
Rajon Rondo and his reps made it clear to Dallas that the All-Star guard would be inclined to sign Mavs extension this summer, sources said.


quote:

Chris Mannix @ChrisMannixSI
Momentum building for Rondo-to-Dallas but Houston remains aggressively in the mix. Rockets do not believe they are out of it. Still talking.


And the Southwest division wasn't good enough already

Damn, Dallas is going to be so fun to watch. This is the best landing spot for him.

Pretty light return for the Celtics. Wright is one of the most underrated players in the league and still kind of young but is going to be a FA this offseason.

I may be in the minority here, but as a Mavs fan I'm pretty nervous about this trade. Who's going to backup Chandler now?

PGs in the Southwest division now.... Holiday, Conley, Tony Parkey, Harden ( more of a PG than Beverly) and Rondo...
