Mavs’ Bold Decision On Christian Wood’s Future, Revealed!
The Dallas Mavericks won’t re-sign Christian Wood this offseason, according to NBA insider Marc Stein.
Wood becomes an unrestricted free agent and the Mavs are not interested in bringing the big man back.
“Thursday marked the one-year anniversary of Dallas’ trade to acquire Christian Wood in exchange for the 26th pick in the 2022 NBA Draft (which Houston used to acquire the draft rights to Wendell Moore Jr.) and the contracts of veterans Sterling Brown, Trey Burke, Marquese Chriss and Boban Marjanović,” Stein wrote. “Wood is bound for unrestricted free agency with the Mavericks, as I reported here April 9 and have subsequently reconfirmed this week, not expected to make him an offer to return.
“The Mavericks, sources say, have moved on and are looking to remake their center rotation.”
Wood appeared in 67 games for the Mavs this past season. He averaged 16.6 points, 7.3 rebounds and 1.8 assists while shooting 51.5% from the field, 37.6% from beyond the arc and 77.2% from the free-throw line.
The Mavs won only 38 games in 2022-23. They didn’t even qualify for the play-in tournament after making the Western Conference Finals last year.
Wood has career averages of 14.8 points, 7.3 rebounds and 1.5 assists with the Philadelphia 76ers, Charlotte Hornets, Milwaukee Bucks, New Orleans Pelicans, Detroit Pistons, Houston Rockets and Mavs. It will be interesting to see where the California native is playing next season.
The Mavs are focused on re-signing Kyrie Irving, who becomes an unrestricted free agent this summer. The All-Star point guard averaged 27.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 6.0 assists in 20 games with Dallas in 2022-23.
“I hear he’s going back to Dallas on a 3+1 [a player option on the fourth year]. His contract will line up [identically] with Luka’s,” one player agent told Bleacher Report’s Eric Pincus.
