Had to get caught up on Josh Richardson, didn't know much about him. Looks like what Delon was supposed to be for us, but Josh seems to have the confidence to pull it off. He's a legit starter where as we wanted Delon to become a starter.
He also seems like our young, either poor man's, or potential Jrue Holiday...and we know the Mavs have coveted Jrue for a long time.
Great get!
J Rich is much better than Delon. I love this trade. J Rich could be a guy that's a long-term fit next to Luka in the back court. Mavs also get him at only 27 years old with bird rights in 2021. Curry is great but Terry might be a long-term replacement and getting a starting SG is more of a need.
Just this Rich for Curry trade alone really shored up the starting lineup heading into the season.
