Trade & FA 2024-25:

[Mavs2021]

I get that Luka suggested DSJ, so he'll at least be considered. I do wonder if there is any lingering DSJ resentment about getting displaced by Luka as the DAL star has resolved.

Luka and DSJ are friends. There were even rumours that Luka (like with Mejri) was pissed at how Carlisle handled that situation and how that whole trade unfolded. There was never any problem between them afaik; on the contrary.

God this franchise was such a mess. Who can forget the pre-FA thrift store purchase of VAJ that Cuban celebrated like he just signed 2002 Shaq, while Julius Randle and Brook Lopez signed contracts for half the money combined a few days later.
