Mavs actually have 13 players for next season, assuming Maxi, JB, FN and Pinson are back: (1) Luka, (2) THJ, (3) SD, (4) DB, (5) Powell, (6) Bullock, (7) Maxi, (8) DFS, (9) Green, (10) Brunson, (11) Ntilikina, (12) Pinson and (13) Wood.

I don't see Mavs getting another center beyond vet min, unless Wood is traded. Wood is a full time center, can't really play PF. Maxi and Powell are his back-ups with Maxi able to play PF and Powell not really. Sure Powell is overpaid for a role of a back-up center, but so would be any other center in his or higher price range. So I only see Powell possibly used in a trade for a big wing with a cheap alternative likely signed on FA market.
Powell is a useful regular season center, who will likely not play in play-offs, where 100 % of center minutes will go to Wood and Maxi.

Dragic would be a great fourth creator.
