TRADE: Davis, Hardy, DLO, Exum to WAS | Middleton, filler, 2 FRPs, 3 SRPs to DAL

I lost track of Middleton when he went to WAS. Has he completely fallen off a cliff? I'm not asking for any Dallas reason, but...could he be flipped? Or, is he maybe a buyout candidate, if they're just looking at him as an expiring salary anyway?

That could get you a roster spot for Nembhard or Cisse, yeah?

I doubt anyone would even consider Middleton unless Mavs take really bad salary back (even than he would only be considered as a salary relief for the other team). I think he was one of prime buyout candidates (was in Washington and remains as such in Dallas).
