Trade & FA 2024-25:

[RGP1981]

Avdija is about as good as it gets in terms of contract size (less than 100% of outgoing THJ and similar money to PJ, but declining).  He plays plus D and on offense he’s a jack of many trades and while he’s kind of a master of none, he’s fairly good at almost everything (and still on a pretty good growth curve at only 23).

Lively, PJ, Avdija, Kyrie and Luka

Gafford, Maxi/Omax, DJJ, Hardy, Exum

If the Mavs get Avdija, I'd want to add a little more shooting to this bench you have listed; at the guard spot. One of Quentin Grimes or Isaiah Joe.

I'm not sure how to go about getting one of those two though, i.e., in addition to Avdija. Do you have any ideas?
