Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

I think there's two questions right away. Will Kyrie start at PG or SG? And what player is playing behind Max Christie for rotation minutes? The SF position can be handled in several ways at present (although that could quickly change), so it doesn't seem like an issue now. Having Kyrie and Sergio on the floor at the same time seems like positive thing, but will the Mavs see Sergio as a starting PG on day one is the question.

But I agree with posts above saying Mathurin may simply too expensive in an environment that doesn't require starter minutes.

I don't imagine Sergio will be starting day 1.  As of today, I don't think there is a viable option other than Kyrie starting at PG.
