Just using the MLE for a wing sized player isn´t enough. Mavs desperately need to improve the wing depth. Keeping MKG would be a start but they need more. One option would be to pick up SG/SF/PF prospects in the draft. Gambling on some veterans and the Mavs player development might be an option as well.
Wings that might be available for the minimum:
Demare Carroll - Can still play defense but has lost his jumper. More of a PF/C
Jeff Green - Currently playing a great series vs the Thunder. Might earn a bigger contract.
Patrick Patterson - With declining athleticism he turned into a small ball 4/5. Good shooter.
Jared Dudley - Good shooter. Physical/dirty player. Would certainly help against teams like the Clippers.
Josh Jackson - Has all the tools but lacks the mentality to make it work. Good athlet. Needs to work on his jumper.
Solomon Hill - Big, strong and not the worst shooter.
Kyle Korver - All time great shooter. Nearly unplayable on defense.
Marvin Williams - Good shooter. Still useful on defense.
Evan Turner - More of a PG. Needs the ball. Bad shooter.
E´Twaun Moore - Good shooter. Undersized for a SG/SF.
Alonzo Trier - Waived by the Knicks. Good scorer. Not sure if we want him in the Mavs locker room.
Wayne Ellington - Beem there, done that. Can shoot but never found a role in RCs offense.
Andre Roberson - Comeback after a long injury break. Was one of the best defenders in the league. Also one of the worst shooters.
Glenn Robinson III - Good athlet. Okay shooter. Lacks fundamentals.
Marco Bellinelli - Good shooter. Terrible defender.
Courtney Lee - Good shooter. Great locker room guy. Already knows the Mavs system.
Looking at the available options the Mavs need to nail the MLE signing. Not a lot of useful low budget options available and the usual ring chasers probably still prefer both LA teams, the Nets or the Warriors.
