Expensive for a guy of his playstyle. He is exactly what the Mavs need. At this point I don't really care if it's an overpay if he brings the energy and hustle this team desperately needs.
I'd be fine even going as high as 17mm.
We can´t pay 10M+ for his talents, when we have Powell and Porzingis on the roster.
Furthermore I can´t stress enough that you need to find these guys before they become expensive. And they are available every year.
Washington just acquired Daniel Gafford for virtually nothing. That´s the kind of move the Mavs never make. Him and WCJ had ridiculous positive NetRtgs on the Bulls, while the other bigs had all been a net negative. The Mavs should have been all over him. 70% from the field for his career, over a BPG in just 13 minutes. That he has come good for Washington is the least surprising thing ever.
Mo Bamba. Now 12.6 PPG, 7.0 RPG, 1.4 BPG, shooting 50/44/75 in just 13 MPG over the last eight games.
If you struggle with defensive concepts, there is no substitute for health and playing time. Given that everybody says he´s a smart kid, he´ll figure it out.
