The Dallas Mavericks are quickly reshaping their roster in the face of a rebuild. It started with drafting Luka Doncic this summer. The front office is now shaping the team around the 19-year-old star. That led to a blockbuster deal that came out of nowhere on Jan. 31.
The Mavs traded three starters including 2017 lottery selection Dennis Smith Jr. to the New York Knicks for Kristaps Porzingis, Tim Hardaway Jr., Courtney Lee, and Trey Burke. Dallas also had to part with two future first round picks to make the deal happen.
