Nope, they actually added the 32 pick. They paid to Indy to take him
Holy shit I just looked that up and its true.
That trade was even worse then I remembered. Just wooooooooooooooow.
However, my main point still stands as to why the Mavs didn't trade for him. His 11m salary would've stopped the Kemba train, and the Mavs didn't want to close that door. His salary also extends beyond 2021 which would've been another 10 mil the Mavs would have to shed for the Giannis dream. Obviously if the Mavs knew Powell would tear his achillies, I'm pretty sure they'd swap his salary with Warren happily.
