One of the Dallas Mavericks' biggest needs entering this offseason was to fill the gaping hole at the point guard position on their roster after Kyrie Irving went down with a torn ACL in March. While the Mavericks would do so by signing D'Angelo Russell to a two-year deal and bringing in Ryan Nembhard on a two-way contract, the Mavericks still lack someone who can truly shoot the ball outside of Klay Thompson.
Not only has shooting become a big part of today's NBA, but as currently constructed, the Mavericks will be relying on Thompson to be one of their only reliable shooters, which has drawn spacing concerns from fans.
