Trade & FA 2024-25:

[Branduil]

The Ringer agrees on Jerami Grant being the perfect fit for the Mavs:

Grant has the biggest contract of any player on this list, and at 30 years old, he’s also the oldest. The last time Grant was in the playoffs was the 2019-20 season, when he made the West finals with the Nuggets. He was a totally different player then, almost exclusively defending, cutting, and shooting spot-up 3s. But he did very little off the dribble like he does now. That’s why he left Denver. Grant wanted to prove himself, and he went on to average 20.8 points in his four seasons since. But his teams have won an average of 24 games per year. Isn’t it time to go back to winning? Grant is still a versatile defender who can fit into any switching defense, and he’s still a knockdown shooter who can cut and score at the rim. But he’s also capable of doing work off the dribble. Much like Porzingis for Boston, perhaps now he’s at a stage of his career where he’d prefer a little more balance.
Dream fit: Dallas. Just imagine a guy with Grant’s scoring talent receiving kickout passes from Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, instead of Maxi Kleber. Grant would feast on more open looks than he ever has. And because of his handling ability, he could help alleviate some of Luka and Kyrie’s burden.

If we have to match more than his salary, THJ+Green+Powell works.
