Dallas Mavericks Receive: G Mike Conley

Indiana Pacers Receive: F Davis Bertans, F Josh Green, 2026 First-Round Pick (UTA)

Utah Jazz Receive: G Malcolm Brogdon

Basically, the Indiana Pacers invite the Dallas Mavericks to this party for the sake of adding Josh Green to their return package.

It’s worth the hassle. Green’s three-point accuracy has been inconsistent during his brief career to date. His defensive effort has been anything but. This kid is a bundle of kinetic energy. At 21, he could be the type of long-term rotation piece the Pacers should be looking to acquire at the moment.

Meanwhile, the Mavericks get an upgrade in their backcourt rotation. If they retain pending restricted free agent Jalen Brunson, they can designate either him or Conley as a super sixth man. Either way, Conley adds playmaking and floor-spacing that this group could really use.

It’s easy to peg the Utah Jazz for demolition, but we shouldn’t write off the possibility that they’ll retool. After all, that’s what small-market teams often do. If Donovan Mitchell does not request a trade, it’s entirely possible that they’ll stay the course.
