So I think the good news here is that Mavs are free to make their move btwn now and the TDL. There aren't really any FA's now left that are worth waiting for if you have a trade opportunity sooner.
I think Giannis staying also makes it very likely Jrue is also staying considering the Bucks management would likely pay him whatever it takes to keep Giannis happy.
Mavs will likely have a shot at like Oladipo, Otto Porter Jr. or van Fournier. All of these players might be available at the TDL.
The fallback plan could just bring everybody back, most notably J Rich & THJ. In my view THJ is a guy you bring back if the price is right. There is no reason to resign him if some team wants to overpay. You have to judge him against Dipo, OPJ, Fournier's price as well as what you might get in the trade market.
Next summer you might be able to get Hield for 3 years with is salary decreasing each year. I think he's a clear upgrade over THJ.
Who knows? I think even bringing everybody back + some very small moves could be fine. There is value in having a team gel together. Mavs top priority if everything goes to plan will be resigning J Rich. After that they just need good contracts that can be traded away or dumped without much trouble.
I have some bad news...

Porzingis WCS
Greek Freak Kleber

Doncic Bronson
I'm OK w/loosing Hardaway, Powell and rookies - Bey & Terry to make it happen. Fill out the rest w/Iwundu, 2 Vet Mins, Bi-Ann and the Room.
