If he's truly your 2nd best player (I'm not convinced he is), you certainly want to keep him. But that isn't a blank check.
One other vital point - some 2nd-best's are way better than others. To me, the dividing line is whether he can make the team be a winner when the best guy is out, or can't. I don't think Wood is anywhere close to being a guy who can take the Mavs to wins when Luka is out. By that criteria, he's probably way down the list.
