Ive come around on AD’s injury and now think it could be the BEST thing for this team. The offers for AD weren’t good so we’re not missing out anything great by not trading him now. No one was going to include a 2026 lottery pick and the Mavs need to lose as many games as possible anyway.
But the silver lining is AD has 275 million reasons to dominate next season when Kyrie is back. If AD returns to MVP form the Mavs will get much better offers next February.
AD absolutely 100% needs to be traded regardless, but I expect him to be here until the next trade deadline — and I also expect him to have a miraculously healthy season next year.
