That is why I think trading Josh Green for Lauri Markkanen is fair and is. more in line with the Mavs' time line with Luka. Luka is in a win-now mode. The Mavs need players who can contribute now or at the bery least will develop into something that can contribute something with the team in the soonest possible time. Lauri is more of that than Green. Lauri at least has proven that he can score in the league and has potential upside in defense. Compared to Green who has 2-way upside but would need serious development, and the Mavs seem to not. have that for Green judging from their personnel acquisitions of late.
