He hasn't shown enough to be a big value add in a trade and I don't think the Mavs are going to give him away for nothing. That might be true of Josh as well as he's just way too inconsistent to be used instead of future first though he certainly has more value than Jaden. Dorian is probably the best bargaining chip in terms of contract (modest and just started his new deal) and production. Wood and Powell have value as an expiring.
If you want Collins and don't want to add picks, I'd just assume Dorian is going out. I still doubt Atlanta would accept a package of Wood/Dorian.
Hardy has value. I bet many teams would take him over a top 10 protected future pick right now.
Teams always try to catch these players before they become really good. That´s called player evaluation. And what better place to ask for a young player than the franchise that values them the least out of all the franchises in the league (by far).
