They haven't clicked since Walton benched him. As soon as it became clear that Walton was back next year I assumed Hield would be shipped out, and the fact that they hired an analytics GM seems on track with that, too.
I still don't think the Mavs will want to take on money past 2021, but for the record, if they DID decide to turn the page, I think Hield is an improvement over THJ, INCLUDING the areas in which THJ already is valuable.
