> It seems unlikely, at this juncture, that Dallas — or Sacramento, for that matter — will be able to find a deal that satisfies Washington’s asking price of multiple first-round picks for Kyle Kuzma. Dallas could search for avenues to manufacture another first-round selection from another team, but the Wizards appear quite comfortable moving forward with Kuzma on their roster, signed to three more seasons after this. Washington has made it known across the NBA landscape, sources said, it is prioritizing draft capital and are wishful to facilitate three-team deals if such concepts would bring more future picks to the nation’s capital.
> Another premium option for the Mavericks, Jerami Grant, also still appears off the trade block. Portland continues to indicate the Blazers are more interested in keeping Grant and guard Malcolm Brodgon, sources said, than moving either veteran for a package that doesn’t blow Portland away. Where else can Dallas look? PJ Washington remains a possibility. Pistons big man Isaiah Stewart is another known target for the Mavericks, league sources told Yahoo Sports. Dallas was one of the teams to show interest in Orlando’s Wendell Carter as well, sources said, although the Magic aren’t looking to move him either.

It’s prob gonna be Green for PJ
If we end this trade deadline with no meaningful improvements to this team that will be incredibly frustrating, almost malpractice by this front office. It will be another wasted Luka prime year….
Juncture, ay? Is D. Harp living a double life as Jake Fischer?
Stew!
Fuck
When does the deadline end
Good. I would love to have Kuz, but not for 3 FRPs or something like that.
Good. If they asking too much I see no real reason to indulge.
PJ Washington come on down! I know a lot of people are out on him, especially for Green, but I love the move. We need to get bigger and more dynamic offensively at the forward position, that would accomplish both.
Can we shoot for WCJ this summer?
This is how the deadline rumor mill plays out…literally every year.
“Team X is unwilling to accept trade offers for player Y that they aren’t blow away by.” Every team is going to overvalue their own assets in the media.
Cut to deadline day when teams are forced to start lowering their price and deals start getting made. If last year is any indication for how the market will shake out, Kuzma will end up getting traded for one 1st round pick, and like…five 2nd rounders.
I’m surprised we aren’t in rumors for John Collins. He’s better than PJ Washington in almost everything and shouldn’t cost more to get him. Stewart as well. I’d love to go after him before PJ.
I still love the idea of Stew. Toughness, rebounding, reasonable long term deal. Mostly been a PF this year next to Duren too. Just depends on what Detroit is asking for 🤷♂️
Lots of smoke here to just be completely off the table imo. 48hrs ago Kuz trade price was “not as high” as originally thought but now its back to “blow us away with your offer or we’ll keep him” lol
I think dust settles in the middle and he gets moved for FRP with protections.
Wiggins
At this juncture, I wonder how different things would look if the Mavs had tried to acquire Jerami Grant last season instead of Kyrie
Every seller is trying to rob the buyers. Gonna be a dead trading deadline.
Everyone wants so much for these mid players smh
Damn, WCJ was top of my list…
