Would this trade make sense for the Dallas Mavericks?
Whether the deal makes sense for the Dallas Mavericks partly comes down to if Kristaps Porzingis is truly disgruntled when he’s not catered to in the half-court offense.. If that is the case, the Mavericks could test his value and get back another impact performer. Brandon Ingram seems like the type that would fit into the system in Dallas.
The Mavericks are set in the backcourt. Doncic is one of the best players in the game and a triple-double threat every time he steps on the floor. Hardaway Jr. is back in the rotation and this gives Dallas depth in the backcourt.
Ingram would fill the small forward position with an elite scorer. During his time in New Orleans, Ingram has turned into a productive scorer that can get it done from anywhere on the floor.
Having this kind of threat next to Doncic would benefit the Pelicans over the course of the season. This could be the move that is made to get Dallas over the hump and into the second round.

This is the ultimate goal as the Mavericks have not been able to advance over the last two years. Ingram is an elite player who could help take Dallas to that next level as soon as possible.
