Trade & FA 2025-26: Free Agency Starts 5pm CST/6pm EST

[Nowitzki Way]

Fortunately, the Celtics might be the only team in the NBA who'd have zero interest in PJ Washington. They have that type of player covered. With Horford turning 92 this year and Porzingis having more Porzingis-like issues, I CAN see them having some interest in Gafford, potentially, though he's a different type of center for them.

I don't think that makes PJ safe, necessarily, as this might be a 3-4 team deal if/when it happens, but I doubt PJW will end up in Boston, which means to me that the the draft capital that switches hands is the most predictable way it could go right or wrong for our Mavs.

You make a good point, our pieces dont seem to fit what Boston wants. Maybe Naji could slide into a starting role this year while Tatum is out. Brown would still need some scoring help from somewhere else on that roster. 

But this would be some sort of large multi team deal. I keep seeing Derozan is on the market. He wouldnt be a bad stop gap while Tatum is out, but they need to shed salary, so i dont know.
