The Dallas Mavericks did not make any additional trades at the deadline following their earlier blockbuster for Kyrie Irving. In a market dominated by an excess of second round picks, the Mavericks simply did not have the ammunition to get any deals done. Dallas had already exhausted their entire supply of tradeable second rounders over the last few years, and rival teams were not interested in acquiring Christian Wood or Tim Hardaway Jr.
Still, the Irving trade helped the Mavericks significantly heighten their ceiling for this season; it just would have been nice to improve on the margins a little more.
