The Dallas Mavericks entered the offseason with grand plans. They wanted to add another All-Star caliber player with the hopes of jumping into title contention. The Mavs had Kawhi Leonard and Kyle Lowry at the top of their list but missed on both.
Dallas quickly pivoted to adding shooting around Luka Doncic. They improved their wing depth and floor spacing by signing Reggie Bullock and Sterling Brown, but the Mavericks would love to add more talent. They created a trade exception by sending Josh Richardson to the Boston Celtics.
