The Mavs can trade now, if they line up a legal, agreed trade.
In this case, it's not legal right now. But they can certainly discuss it, and agree with the Rox that it gets done later. You have seen deals like this before, as they happen with some regularity.
Important to note, that this is NOT an actual trade yet. Neither team did (or can) announce it. It's not on the record, and technically neither team is obligated until it is legal and submitted to the league office for approval. That earliest date is June 23, after round 1 of the draft is done.
It's also possible that the trade gets expanded between now and then. Other teams could get added, with side deals that somehow tie in to what's already informally 'agreed.'
