The Mavericks still plan to add Peja Stojakovic early next week, despite the fact that the trade to create a roster spot remains on hold, according to sources.

Dallas and Toronto both have expressed confidence that the trade of center Alexis Ajinca will ultimately be approved.

NBA officials spent Friday examining the swap for salary-cap compliance after postponing a trade call originally scheduled for Thursday night to ratify the deal.

The Mavericks sent Ajinca back to the team's hotel on Thursday before their game against the Bulls.
