The Dallas Mavericks traded for J.J. Redick and Nicolo Melli minutes before the deadline this year. It cost them James Johnson, Wesley Iwundu, and a second-round pick. The Mavs wanted a sharpshooter to improve the team’s spacing.

Redick was dealing with a heel injury when Dallas acquired him. He missed 18 consecutive games and over a month of action after having a PRP injection. The injury cropped back up when the Mavericks faced the Memphis Grizzlies on May 11. Dallas was quick to rule him out for the rest of the regular season.
