Mavericks forward Parsons has not been fully cleared for the start of training camp

The Dallas Mavericks forward Chandler Parsons, center JaVale McGee and guard Wesley Matthews will all be worked into action "gradually" when the Mavs start camp next week.

Parsons, 26, underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right knee in May to fix cartilage damage. He missed 10 of Dallas' last 11 games, including four of five in its first-round loss to the Houston Rockets. Despite pain, Parsons attempted to play in Game 1 of the series, scoring 10 points on 5-of-15 shooting, before being shut down.
