The Dallas Mavericks made the blockbuster trade of the deadline in 2019 by acquiring Kristaps Porzingis from the Knicks. It cost the Mavs three starters and two future first round picks, but acquiring a 23-year-old All-Star never comes cheap.
The Mavericks also received Tim Hardaway Jr. in that deal. The 27-year-old guard has six seasons of NBA experience. He was in the midst of his best year by averaging 19.1 points per game at the time of the trade.
Stress injury
