- "Let me just say, in my conversations with executives/agents over the last week, Jalen Brunson's name got brought up A LOT. At least 3 or 4 different scenarios. I never heard so much talk about a high level role player."
- "He gets better every single year, going to get $18-20 million per year, and I don't think it's going to be a bad contract. A decent chance he gets that contract in Dallas."
- "Brunson is happy in Dallas, he doesn't want to move." Not enough to get the extension done though.
- A lot of talk Knicks would make some moves to free up cap space, huge sigh of relief for the Mavs.
- "Pistons view Brunson as a great fit next to Luka, would be great next to Cade Cunningham too. Pistons asked about Brunson yesterday but it was a brief conversation, Mavs jokingly counter-offered that they had interest in Cade (lol). Jerami Grant was never on the table for the Pistons."
