Doug McDermott
Unlike Anunoby, there is no mystery surrounding Doug McDermott’s abilities. The Dallas Mavericks would know exactly what they’re getting from the man they call Mr. Buckets.
In fact, that’s exactly what they’d be getting: buckets.
McDermott is not the NBA’s best defender. With that said, he puts worth an effort and is fundamentally sound. Limited athleticism keeps his impact on that end slightly below average.
On the other hand, he’s one of the most consistent floor-spacers in the National Basketball Association. McDermott won’t relieve Doncic of any playmaking duties, but he will enhance his playmaking. With a ball-handler as gifted as Doncic on your roster, more floor-spacing is never a bad idea.

Furthermore, also unlike OG Anunoby, Doug McDermott will be easily affordable. The Mavericks should have no trouble swinging a trade for him if they’re interested. After all, his Spurs are in the earliest stages of a rebuild.
