The Dallas Mavericks are trading 10-time NBA All-Star Anthony Davis, Jaden Hardy, D’Angelo Russell and Dante Exum to the Washington Wizards for Khris Middleton, AJ Johnson, Malaki Branham, Marvin Bagley III, 2 first-round picks and 3 second-rounders, sources tell ESPN.
Hearing it’s an OKC first and a protected Warriors first lol
thank you jesus. still don’t love it but at least they didn’t mortgage the future for street clothes.
Yeah it’s basically going to be the 30th pick since OKC is probably leading the league and a late first depending on the year and warriors record.
Trae/AD is actually a decent combo especially in the East but the question as always is how many games is AD playing. Still pretty low risk with what they gave up.
I think D’Angelo and Hardy are tough losses because they were pretty decent play makers, and I’ve always been a hater of Dante Exum, so I think this trade is overall positive.
With Nembhard playing very well at 22, Flagg at 19, and Kyrie potentially coming back after the all-star break, I have hope for the 2nd half of the season. Not play-in hopes, but the team has shown they can get to crutch time with some of the best teams in the league without some of their best players.
