But he is more valuable to Atlanta now than he will be in the summer when he can't help the current team make a playoff run. The same goes for any of the other teams interested in him, and I am not sure the offseason is going to make it any easier for them. Golden State still has to give up Green or Butler for example.
In my original post I said I hope they can get a reasonable offer. I have not said trade him just to trade him. But I don't think the options are likely to be better in the offseason, I think the Mavs extending him would be a disaster and running this roster back with a disgruntled AD doesn't make much sense either.
Mavs
Young
Risacher
Kuminga
Warriors 2026 1st
Cavs 2026 1st
Warriors
Gafford
Thompson
Hawks
AD
Hield
works without the Warriors giving up Butler or Green.
Mavs and Warriors stay under the 2nd apron, but take a heavy tax hit.
