What's interesting is a lot of players that would be candidates to be moved have high salaries thus making them pretty hard to move. My worry is that many will get bought out instead which means they will just run to the Lakers or another top contender. I wish the NBA would add some restrictions on buyout guys. Like for example what happens if Thompson and JJ Redick got bought out and run to the Lakers? I don't think that will happen but there are a couple of surprises every year.
The advantage the Mavs have is the Lee chip + 2nds + that TE of ab 12 mil (altho it cannot be combined for higher salary guys).
That would put the Mavs in the mix for a lot of expirings like Iggy, Thompson, Favors, and so on. Thad Young is also an interesting player. He could definitely be a straight dump player who would be a good fit here. He only has 6 mil guaranteed in 2021. That does cut into Mavs space for a max player so that is an issue.
