Fred VanVleet and Joe Harris are two names I can see fitting in well with the Mavs as far as FA's.
Another thing working in the Mavs favor is that they only really need 3rd option type guy to play with Luka and Porzingis. A big star like Lilliard or Mccullom wouldn't hurt, but all I think they need is a reliable 3rd option to get them to the next level
Yea hear same locally about FVF but as a Mavs fan I have been very blah on free agency.
Pretty much every decent thing that ever happened to Mavs has been via trade.
Dirk and Luka were draftees but via trade on draft night.
Possible trade targets:
Draymond Green: DAL needs a ruffian who can do the little things and Green can. Does DAL have enough to get a deal done? Tough to see them pulling this on off but best case for fit. A lot may depend on how GS feels about Green and if they've tired of drama.
Julius Randle: Dallas kid the Mavs have been familiar with since 8th grade. He loves home and would likely welcome a move but his fit is far more questionable and DAL wasn't in on him as a FA. But DAL "might" reconsider as a trade option. I'd say this is pretty unlikely but far more likely than us getting them to trade us KP.
Jrue Holiday: Solid veteran PG that can shoot it which fits with Mavs. Luka and KP elevate other guys offense and Jrue is efficient. NOP is going young so this one has to be near the top of list.
Blake Griffin: This one is a messy fit but DET may be willing to actually sweeten pot to offload him and that contract. Cuban is probably not scared of cost to become a title contender. And Griffin plus Luka would be insane offense.
Buddy Hield: 2nd straight OU guy who would fit the Mavs 5 out offense like a glove. It's just outbidding other teams that could be a challenge. Philly should be offering up anything not nailed down for this guy.
Aaron Gordon: Another scoring big with lots of interest but losing luster at home. Not sure DAL has enough assets to get it done.
CJ McCollum: The prize trade target of the off-season so we'll list him but DAL realistically very short of assets required to land him. Maybe POR makes other FA moves and need sot move him.
I do think DAL will get a pretty appealing MLE guy as they have available minutes, possibly starting, on a playoff team.
