I'm not sure. I think if the Mavs could choose, they'd find a player like Avdija/Grant/ whatever to start, AND bring back DJJ just because his fit was so good.
Interesting to see how this shakes out. If DJJ leaves and the Mavs can't find any suitable replacement I'm going to be quite angry.
Its hard to imagine DJJ starting on any other team. Dallas was kind of a unique situation. My guess is DJJ would not be disgruntled coming off the bench for us as long as he got his minutes (he said as much in an interview during the season, and given his history it make sense).
