Also played a lot in a few games in the playoffs because Nurk fouled out. His contract is up and they will probably let him walk. Just replacing him with a cheap middle of the road defensive role big would probably upgrade their defensive rather significantly, just because Kanter is sooooo bad. Maybe Maxi might be appealing for them in that regard in a trade. Actually I think the DJJ + CJ --> KP + Maxi trade makes a lot of sense for both teams.
DJJ is kind of a JAG, I would probably rather have Nurkic than DJJ. Nurkic would fill a roll the Mavs haven't really had which is a classic big body, rebound guy. Mavs have run into problems from time to time with all their tweener bigs getting bullied in some matchups.
