I think none of the remaining FA is worth more than BAE. A couple of interesting depth pieces, but none of them a starter. So I think Mavs are now focusing on a trade and if something materializes, they will fill the remaining holes later. They have positions filled as it is. Far from ideal on wing (still THJ) and center, but remaining FA don't improve that. If trade doesn't materializes, this is the team for the new season.
Irving, Hardy
Green, THJ, Curry
Luka, Exum
GW, Omax
Holmes, Maxi, Lively, McGee
My hope is now on Capela. Lots of rumors Atlanta is trying to use him as salary filler in a deal for one of the elite wings (KAT, Siakam). Neither Minny nor Toronto needs him. But no one will also just give him for nothing. Draft price was pick swap and Green. I would not give Green and also not whole 2027 FRP. So, can middle ground be reached with something more coming to Dallas?
Although, on the Atlanta front. Collins deal is official now, so they can't offer anymore salary relief in a big deal. Bogi can't be dealt till September, so their only appropriate salaries are Capela and Hunter. Alternatively Capela (or Hunter), Okongwu and Bey.
