POSTED: 8:32 pm PDT June 25, 2009

(Sports Network) - The Dallas Mavericks acquired guard Rodrigue Beaubois and a future second-round pick from the Oklahoma City Thunder in exchange for the Mavericks' 24th overall selection B.J. Mullens.

The 21-year-old Beaubois was taken with the 25th overall pick. The Pointe-a- Pitre, Guadeloupe native appeared in 29 French Pro A games in 2008-09 and averaged 10 points, 2.5 rebounds and 2.3 assists.

"We could not be happier with the addition of Rodrigue," Mavericks president of basketball operations Donnie Nelson said. "His dynamic athleticism will add versatility and energy to our backcourt. He was one of the highest-rated athletes this draft."

Mullens, a center, mostly came off the bench for Ohio State last season, averaging 20.3 minutes with two starts, appearing in all 33 games while posting 8.8 points and 4.7 rebounds per game.
