I think some variance in expectations from over performing and under performing contracts is expected. No GM gets it right 100% of the time. Whatever the "overpay" of $1 million or whatever for WCS and is made up for the underpays of DFS and Kleber's contracts. In the end, ultimately, if pre-injury Dwight Powell making $10 million is the worst contract we have to obsess over, the Mavs front office is in the higher percentiles of the NBA at projecting player future values. Ultimately, these things don't really move the needle in contending for Championships. The Nets and the Lakers aren't winning their Conferences because they were the most judicious about paying rotation players their true values.
