Maybe, but I also think it could mean they're looking for someone who can play the 3, maybe even the 4, in small ball lineups and/or put 5 guys on the floor who are all 6'6" or bigger. Or they're catching something in their motion tracking analytics that says Mavs opponents are hugging the 3 point line and parking under the rim while leaving the short to mid post wide open, and the Mavs have no one on the roster who can exploit it. Or the Mavs already think they have a small jitterbug rim finisher in Brunson, and they're looking for a completely different skillset.
