Even deep into the offseason, the Dallas Mavericks are continuing to gain subtle victories with some of their past trades made, though that obviously can't be said for Nico Harrison's disastrous Luka Doncic trade.
One piece of business Dallas nailed this offseason was signing Daniel Gafford to a three-year $54 million contract extension, and while this deal was already a great value proposition for Dallas, it further shifted the optics of Dallas' Gafford-Richaun Holmes trade even further, as Gafford nailed down his immediate future in Dallas while Holmes remained on the open market deep into free agency.
