Maybe, maybe not. He's 28, which is about the age when players get a little "malcontentish" about feeling like they can't win. They've had issues in the past there between Siakim and management.
He's the guy they've been trying to build around since Kawhi Leonard chose the Clippers...and now people want them to tear down. To me, that suggests that maybe he'll be the FIRST one to go, so that they can start focusing on Barnes as a cornerstone.
EDIT: if they actually tear down, of course. As you say, they might be looking to improve, not to reset, which doesn't happen as often as the Mavs/media think it should.
