Dennis Smith Jr. is one of the more exciting young point guards in the league, and it surprises me that the Dallas Mavericks could be looking to trade the 21 year old. According to ESPN’s Tim MacMahon, the team is at least gauging the market for Smith.
It’s clear that the fast emergence of rookie Luka Doncic has made Smith expandable. Dallas is building around Doncic, and Smith may not be the best fit next to the prized rookie.
With that being said, should the Charlotte Hornets get on the phone with Dallas and look to acquire Smith from the Mavericks?
