They cover part of that with the rookie (was it Walker or Hendricks?), but they could still use a vet in the rotation. So Grant Williams could be an option. They traded Duarte, because he wouldn't get minutes behind Brown. Their line-up could be:
Haliburton, McConnel
Mathurin, Hield
Brown, Nembhard
Williams, rookie
Turner, Jackson
As for Dallas. They still didn't accomplish any of the obvious needs for next season. It seems like Brown is running away. Really looking forward to what they will do, but if they don't bring in two credible starters, I will find it very hard to credit the offseason as successful.
I think draft night indicated that the focus was on filling those spots long term vs next season. I hope they acquire one more starter level player (forward) that fits both next season and long term plan. In my mind that is a reasonable goal to close out the season. I don't think they have the assets to bring in 2 starters right now.
