Dallas Mavericks Receive: F/C Robert Covington
Los Angeles Clippers Receive: F/C Christian Wood
In fact, these two players make for an interesting comparison.
Wood is among the most dynamic offensive big men in the NBA. He can shoot, dunk, and even isolate at times. Unfortunately, his defensive effort leaves much to be desired.
By contrast, Covington doesn’t do much on the offensive end besides shooting. Still, his defensive effort never waives.
NBA coaches know they can count on Covington to fight for them.
