BOSTON – With the stroke of a keyboard, Daniel Gafford gained 18 and-a-half games in the standings when the Dallas Mavericks

acquired him in a Feb. 8 trade with the Washington Wizards.

At the time of the trade, Gafford and the Wizards were 9-41 and had lost 10 of their previous 12 games. On the flip side, the Mavs were 28-23 at that juncture and in the midst of dethroning the Knicks in New York when the trade became official.

Although he enjoyed his time with his teammates in Washington, DC, Gafford was thrilled to be with a team in the middle of a heated playoff race.
