It will take Jackson and probably Brunson, maybe the GSW pick. They might have to absorb Felicio for Lee or the TE. I just think Markkanen really fits what the Mavs want to do with Porzingis at five and it's clear the kid is a bad fit in Chicago and he will thrive in Dallas.

Why would Bulls trade a clearly better player for JJ and Brunson that dont play or produce much? It is a step in the wrong direction. Markkanen is pretty good from what I have seen from him.
Why do they want to trade him anyway? Makes no sense to me.
They allegedly see him as busting this year. If they see JJ and Brunson as a step back, that helps them tank.
