Spencer Dinwiddie was the spark the Dallas Mavericks needed

In the summer of 2021, then Nets guard Spencer Dinwiddie signed a three year $62 million deal with the Washington Wizards as part of a trade that ended up being pretty complicated.

Coming off an ACL tear, Dinwiddie did not play well to open the season in Washington; he shot a terrible 37.6% from the floor and looked totally out of sorts. Things between he and other teammates quickly soured. The Wizards were then open to moving him for Dallas Mavericks forward Kristaps Porzingis before the trade deadline in the spring of 2022.
