Why The Dallas Mavericks Do The Deal 

On the other hand, the Mavericks won’t concern themselves with the upcoming draft. 

After all, they don’t need a franchise player – they have one. Luka Doncic is one of the best players in the entire National Basketball Association. 

He still needs help. A look at this roster reflects a need for more dynamic offensive weapons.

After Doncic, the Mavericks’ best bucket-getters are Spencer Dinwiddie and Christian Wood. That may not suffice in the playoffs.

Adding Trent Jr. helps tremendously. He can create his own shot, and he’s a lethal floor spacer who will compliment Doncic nicely. He’s a positive defender as well. All told, that sounds like a player worth trading for.
