Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[Knutsen]

Given Kuminga desire for minutes and how stacked this roster already is at his position, I'm not sure why he would want to come here.

From a Mavs „talent accumulation and rising the value of the roster“ perspective he fits - him being only 23 years old fits, him being African and Ujiri being an ambassador of African basketball fits.

Most importantly I don’t think we’re full at his position, because following that 4-5 switchable forwards and positional size script there’s no clear one position for him - and lots of minutes. 

So if other full MLE options close and the price gets right - let’s go for it!
