Look, with JB it's all about does he want to bail.
And if he's smart he'll have a view about that which is already formed and is independent of exactly how the rest of this season goes.
And the view will be that he wants to be the starting PG on a team.
But, maybe he's not smart and the Mavs can sweet talk him into staying on the team until they trade him in 24 months time for something shiny-er.
Hence, there is no "value"/"worth" for JB. He completely skews that by whatever he wants.
Now, if the Mavs know or strongly believe JB wants to run his own show they can try to trade him to NYK - probably could get the 2023 FRP + Obi Toppin (and maybe plus Quickley in addition whilst throwing in Moses? or Burke?). Mitch Robinson might be an asset too far.
Completely different scenario: Mavs agree to sign and trade JB in the off-season. Other bad scenario, Mavs sign JB and then trade him to where they want. ...
