2019-2020 Mavs Trade Discussion + Salary Chart

[omahen]

Richardson is intrigueing due to fit (wing, good defender, can shoot it, even score a bit, high motor & athleticism) and contractual situation (player option for 21-22 which he will most likely decline so he's basically an expiring contract). Philly's payroll is already bloated so you gotta wonder what they will do with him.

Rivero doesn't look as anything close to contributing on a contender. He is not relevant even in Spanish liga ACB. So, perhaps they are interested as summer league player, I doubt anything more. 

Regarding Richardson, I think it is likely Philly will move him, because they can't resign him. Unless of course, they reduce their payload by giving away any of their 4 highest paid players. But that doesn't make them better. I added Horford to the mix, because it is a move that benefits both sides.

Although, if I think about it more. Curry + pick(s) for Richardson might also be interesting for both sides. Luka, THJ, Richardson, DFS (or Kleber), KP would also be a very good line-up. But, we would deseprately need to add a couple of good bench pieces. I doubt Philly would go for Wright+picks. If he would be expiring yes, but he isn't.
