..... then DJJ is scooped up by Lebron and LA. Not sure though what his role in LA would be as they already have Lebron, Rui, Vando, Taurean Price, Cam Reddish at the 3/4. So if he wants to have a significant role, Mavs is his best bet.

I think the last part of the above is correct, and is the important part. DJJ is going to want to be in a place where he has a "significant role." It's hard to see that sort of role in LA for him, with their other players, than he would have in Dallas and that the Mavs would offer. LA has multiple players who would be ahead of him, and what they need is shooters to space the floor, which is NOT his game.

I just don't see any fit at all in LA for him.
