Trade & FA 2024-25:

Can’t access. What does it say?

Not much.  Mavs don’t have assets for Jones even if NO wanted to move him imo.

The Mavericks have contemplated trying to add an impact perimeter defender before the Feb. 6 trade deadline, front-office sources on rival teams told The Athletic. The New Orleans Pelicans’ Herb Jones, who last season was the only non-center to make the NBA’s All-Defensive First Team, is one player who fits that description. But there is little belief in NBA circles that the Pelicans will actually move him.
If the Mavericks don’t make a trade, the responsibility of slowing down Gilgeous-Alexander in a potential playoff rematch would go to a combination of Washington, Marshall and Grimes.
“I feel like I can guard anybody,” Washington said. “I feel like I’m comfortable guarding smalls, bigs. It doesn’t really matter.”
