You are neglecting gazillion of moves for young players that never turn it around. Mavs did try with Justin Jackson or FN in the past, but neither turned it around despite getting plenty of chance. Also, stats from tanking games have little to no value.
Azubuike might be an ok one on one defender against centers, but he is horrible against anyone else. Third stringer at best. Similar goes for Reed, Wagner and Bitadze. Hayes is an enigma both in terms of his salary as well as the upside. Reid is likely more than rMLE guy and is similar to Wood. Has offense, but weak defender. In any case, Mavs have more than enough of average centers. They need a good starter.
