Why The Dallas Mavericks Do The Deal
The Mavericks are taking a risk with this deal. Sexton has not looked like a second offensive option throughout 2022-23 to date.
In fact, the last time he did was two seasons ago. With that said, the efficient 24.3 points per game that Sexton gave the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2020-21 ought to be indicative of his abilities.
Moreover, the Jazz have been easing Sexton back into the game after a season-ending injury in 2021-22. He has absolutely flashed the potential to return to his previous form when given the opportunity. If he did, he’d be the perfect compliment to Doncic.
While Doncic has a cerebral approach to playmaking, Sexton attacks with relentless energy. The two could be a great fie-and-ice duo.
