Score, Shoot, Create, Defend, Rebound
The Mavs need to find players that can check at least 2 of those boxes and 3/5 is where you really want to get. The current roster is so devoid of multi-faceted players.
Luka: 5/5 when he engages, still 4/5 if he sleep walks
CWood: Have seen him be anywhere from 0/5 to 4/5 with creating being the one thing missing (but not needed)
Spence: 3/5, doesn't defend or rebound...and isn't consistent as a solo creator but beggars, choosers and all
Reggie: 0/5 way too often this year, 2/5 when he's going well
DFS: Better version of Reggie
THJ: 1/5, shooter
Maxi: 2/5, can't rebound or do anything with the basketball
Powell: 0/5 but does bring intangibles, a big can just check defense/rebounding box and be ok...DP just too limited. I will give him credit as a hard working team defender with zero rim protection.
McGee was supposed to be a 2/5 big
Bertans is a 1/5 shooter
Hardy and Green are the only two potential upside pieces. At Green's absolute best he is probably a 3/5 (shoot, defend, create) but that's giving him a lot of credit for his potential as a creator (and really more just as a passer). Hardy is probably also a 3/5 (score, shoot, create) at his best.
If you can move a 1/5 THJ for something that gives you a more well rounded player, then you do it. This roster needs guys that bring more than 1-2 things to the table.
