Probably more than it feels like as we sit here and focus on how old he is or how he's not the player he used to be. He'd probably help quite a bit, and in a variety of ways.
...or how he could tear another ACL and his career is over while he is McGeeing his 75/3 guaranteed contract. This could literally be the move that kills the Mavs. We need to think about a long-term Kyrie replacement or at least a player like Hunter whose value we can rehab and re-trade in 18 months. Klay is dead money the moment he signs and the best case is that he does not blow out another knee or just declines cause he is old.
Please no.
