THE CRUCIFIX: Cato: Wood isn't thrilled w/ his role...Will depart in the summer

Tim Cato in The Aathletic

Wood’s situation is more complicated: He’s a dangerous scorer who often doesn’t cover enough space defensively to warrant the coaching staff’s trust. But the Mavericks remain in need of his minutes on this roster, even if Wood might not be thrilled with the limited bench role he’s been assigned and will almost certainly depart this summer."

I mean the writing was on the wall when he came back from injury and lost his spot.

I wouldn't be shocked to hear of the arguments he must've had with Kidd. Wood does look pretty checked out right about now.
