Why The Dallas Mavericks Do The Deal
Some Mavericks fans may oppose this deal. Surely, they’ll see the need for a defensive big.
The Mavericks need a rim protector. With that said, fans may prefer a veteran. Why? Duren would have a minimalistic job description.
He already showed plenty of potential to do the job in Detroit. Odds are, he’d be better in a winning environment.
Meanwhile, he also provides Luka Doncic with a lob threat. If the Mavericks are able to retain Kyrie Irving, adding Duren – even as a sophomore – could be a win-now move.
