Probably out of reach for the Mavs and I am not even sure if I would want him on the team but I have a hard time to come up with a reasonable offer. His trade value should be at an all time low. Gobert range? Kyrie range? Would anyone consider a sign&trade deal that involves Kyrie?
I'm not putting this in the 'likely' category by any means, but I'll point out that we hired two front office guys from Brooklyn and then traded with Brooklyn for Kyrie. Now we are about to hire a former Utah guy and Gobert is on the market. Makes you go hmmmm.
I'm not sure how you manage a cap with Luka, Kyrie and Gobert on it and we certainly can't play a switch heavy D if Rudy is your center. So, there is a lot to argue against it. At the same time, trading THJ for him in a 22/23 deal only needs another $10.85mm to be legal. Some look at him and see a $40mm Powell. Others see a guy with Defense, shooting efficiency, rebounding (O and D) and blocks all in the 90th percentile who often achieve double digit On-Minus-Off impact.
