The Mavericks may have found a way to solve multiple roster issues at once in this Bleacher Report mock trade.
Bleacher Report's Zach Buckley recently suggested a mock trade sending Austin Reaves and a 2031 first-round pick from the Los Angeles Lakers to the Dallas Mavericks in exchange for Dereck Lively II and Caleb Martin. At first, Mavericks fans might hesitate. Lively is still one of the franchise’s most promising young players, and Martin was acquired just last trade deadline.
