Dallas Mavericks Pair Bojan Bogdanovic, Luka Doncic
Detroit Pistons Receive: F Davis Bertans, C Dwight Powell, F Reggie Bullock, 2025 First-Round Pick (DAL)
Dallas Mavericks Receive: F Bojan Bogdanovic, G/F Alec Burks, C Nerlens Noel
It feels notable that the Detroit Pistons may have a better supporting cast than the Dallas Mavericks.
Dallas should not be mining the worst team in the NBA for veteran help. Yet, here we are. Consider it a testament to Doncic’s abilities.
This deal ought to make his life easier. Obviously, it’s highlighted by Bojan Bogdanovic. His ability to create his own shot and space the floor will make Dallas a much better team. Still, Burks and Noel are useful veterans in their own right.
Meanwhile, the Detroit Pistons ought to be prioritizing first-round picks over all else: after all, they’re the worst team in basketball.
