In case you're wondering about all the reports so early of who the Mavs (and other teams) are likely to be interested in when free agency opens, why we see so many names, and what they mean ...
Free agency negotiations have already started. And, with some targets, ended. Even if, technically, free agency hasn't opened yet.
The Mavs didn't "move on" from Kawhi due to a decision to pick a different target with a better chance. They did it after already taking their shot to entice him, and being told that Kawhi isn't interested.
Unlike with Kawhi, they are getting POSITIVE feedback from Lowry's camp, so far.
