Next season, the Dallas Mavericks are entering perhaps their most critical year in franchise history as they not only welcome the future with Cooper Flagg but also continue to try and win now with Kyrie Irving and Anthony Davis on their roster. While the Mavericks are still fully invested in the moment as the team and fans believe they can win one or more playoff series, assuming Irving returns healthy, it's hard not to notice that the Mavs could easily avoid a future headache and focus on the future as soon as possible.
Not only do the Mavericks have multiple players who could make a team into one contending for a title, but with Davis on Dallas' roster, it gives them an easy out if they want to focus on a rebuild.
