Dallas Mavericks Receive: G/F Bogdan Bogdanovic

Atlanta Hawks Receive: F Dorian Finney-Smith, G/F Reggie Bullock, 2027 First-Round Pick, 2024 Second-Round Pick

This trade would see the Dallas Mavericks take a chance at adding some extra scoring while the Atlanta Hawks would begin to prioritize defense a bit more. In theory, this could help each team shore up an area of need before the NBA trade deadline.

As mentioned, Bogdan Bogdanovic has been struggling a bit this season. He’s averaging 13.9 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 2.7 assists while shooting 43.9 percent from the field and 38.4 percent from three-point range. However, just last year he put up 16.4 points and shot nearly 44.0 percent from deep.

Dorian Finney-Smith has played a huge role for the Mavs this season. The veteran forward is putting up 10.1 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 1.9 assists while shooting 44.4 percent from the field and 36.2 percent from three-point land.

Reggie Bullock has been struggling a bit this year, averaging 6.8 points while shooting 40.3 percent from the field and 33.7 percent from deep.

However, he was a great 3&D guy for the Knicks last year and has been picking things up lately. Bullock is averaging 8.9 points while shooting 48.4% from the floor and 43.8% from deep since returning from the NBA health and safety protocol on New Year’s Eve.

The Hawks would also net a couple of second-round picks in the trade, but this trade would really be about them focusing on the defensive side of the ball. Meanwhile, the Mavericks would add another scoring option alongside Doncic and Porzingis. But why should both teams be interested in this trade as a whole?
