Trade & FA 2025-26: Free Agency Starts 5pm CST/6pm EST

[Dirknows]

I'm not into Mathurin.  He is very similar to Kuminga.  (slightly smaller version)  A guy that could be good if he played a role but he wants the ball and to score 20ppg.

Super inefficient scorer.  He was shooting 42% from three a month ago.  I knew that was a mirage.  Down to 37% already.
Does not offer any playmaking.  (2 assists per game)
Does not use his physical skills to be an imposing defender.



Now, he would fit positionally better than Kuminga.  He is a bit of a slasher that could start alongside Christie and Flagg in a smaller lineup.  His FT% is good so maybe some long term potential to be a better shooter. 
Plus if we don't have any better offers, I wouldn't hate it.  Just not a player I'd target.


CLIFFS:  I'd like players that can either play make or shoot, ideally both.  Kuminga and Mathurin do neither.

Mathurin seems like a guy who just wants to get his buckets and that’s it. I’m definitely not looking to move Gafford just to pay him 25 million a year.
