Sources say Mavs also close to separate trade w/TOR to send reserve center Alexis Ajinca to Raps for draft itemsf. All explained in story

It seems like the Peja Stojakovic release might be the first domino in a series. Now, ESPN.com's Marc Stein is reporting that the Raptors are close to acquiring Dallas Mavericks' reserve center Alexis Ajinca in exchange for perhaps a draft pick. More details to come for sure, but it's a bit of a head-scratching move. Ajinca has shown flashes of potential as a legit shot-blocking big man, but as The Toronto Sun's Ryan Wolstat just pointed out via Twitter, Ajinca's D League numbers are hardly different than Solomon Alabi's: Ajinca: 13.7 PPG, 7.3 RPG, 2.7 BPG, .523 FG%, 24.9 MPG Alabi, 8.9PPG, 6.6 RPG, 2.6 BPG,.474 FG%, 22.0 MPG
