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

Idk. There’s room to do something with KP now if you want.

KP + ‘27 FRP
Gafford+Martin

Mavs add $6.7M but stay under the tax. Clear a roster spot and get off Martin’s deal, while getting a pick in ‘27, which they currently don’t have? Can look at bringing back KP in the summer on a 1 year type deal?

Apart from his health concerns, KP may be a nice addition to a Flagg-centric team. Good outside shot with his size really stretches a defense and would allow Coop and Kyrie (and BWill?) to feast in the paint. Keep the lob threat and rim protection of Lively (next season) and you have a good 2-way core to work with, especially if Max can get a little more consistent with his outside shot. 

And I think his time with BOS and ATL may have gotten him to accept a role player position instead of a perennial All Star candidate. 

At worst, he's another expiring for financial freedom.  

Dry Powder, Baby!!!
