Trade & FA 2024-25:

[Smitty]

Naji brings different things to the table like some playmaking (along with some boneheadedness) and a very good midrange game, but he is currently shooting under 32% from 3 which is his career average.

IF the Mavs make the playoffs, I can see a real possibility that Naji isn't in the rotation. Those kind of shooting numbers are what made DJJ unplayable at times in the Finals, even with his superior defensive play. And I think the Mavs can make up for some of that playmaking he brings with Exum, if he continues his recent play.

I think we can all agree that the top 8 when healthy is:
Kyrie
Exum
Christie
Klay
PJW
Davis
Lively
Gafford

Next up:
Naji
Martin
Dinwiddie
