NBA Free Agency 2018: Will Barton could provide the Mavs with much needed scoring

The list of shooting guards on the open market is small, and the amount of unrestricted two guards makes that list even smaller. But unrestricted two who can score with ease anywhere on the floor? Well, that may only describe Will Barton.

Barton is hitting unrestricted free agency at a time many teams don’t have spending money, but that shouldn’t stop the 27-year-old guard from attracting several interested suitors. The Mavericks will likely take a look at the six-year veteran and find the team doesn’t quite have a player like him.

Basics

Barton was drafted by the Portland Trail Blazers in the 2012 draft but was traded at the February 2015 deadline to the Nuggets in a transaction headlined by Portland acquiring Aaron Afflalo.
