Green is so undervalued in the Mavs fan community. He’s still younger than Keegan Murray who is about to go top 10. Imagine Green had stayed at Arizona and was coming out this year as a 21 year old Junior. He might be a top 10 pick! I digress… Favors would fit well here but he’s always injured. If the cost was just a second and tax for Cuban then sure! But no way Cuban pays that tax for our 3rd or 4th big, as Favors makes like 10m I think.
THJ for Favors/JaGreen is close to cash neutral for 2022-23, and leaves Powell on the roster as an emergency fill should Favors be injured. It also gives two expiring contracts, in case something tasty pops up at the TDL that needs significant filler.
Or, Powell for Favors might alternately work, one expiring for another. Re the issue of Favors health, the best answer might be to play the bulky center off the floor with 48 mins of small ball (ie, Wood-Kleber) wearing them out from the arc, rather than having another traditional C.
