Safe to say Gafford would be the outgoing in a Mathurin trade. So, $17.3 as a Year 1 salary for Mathurin is where you’d be starting from to keep everything as-is.
I think the Mavs would make more than just that trade between the deadline and this summer.
Bottom line, if the Mavs want to keep Mathurin, they can and will. White they have no control.
The question should be: Is Mathurin worth (and willing to take) a 4 yr $75M deal? That’s what it’d be if you use Year 1 Gafford money.
