Trade & FA 2024-25:

[KillerLeft]

1 DJJ
As I noted weeks ago, I think DJJ strongly prefers Dallas because he has been on the other side of the situation, where he doesn't fit in the rotation, can't get minutes, and doesn't enjoy it at all. Now that he has found a place where he fits well, and where he really fits as a teammate and in the group, he wants to continue being here.

The Mavs went out and showed they feel the same way, making a trade to pay him more than they started with. And they are saying he's their top priority. Everybody sees what the Mavs have made possible.

I don't think he's even looking elsewhere. Why bother? And he and Mavs have undoubtedly talked and know the situation.

This is the way I see it, too. I was starting to think I was the only one.
