Episode Details

The Dallas Mavericks made a significant offseason move by acquiring Santi Aldama from the Memphis Grizzlies, adding a 7-foot shooting big that deepens a Mavs frontcourt already featuring Cooper Flagg, and signals that more NBA roster moves are on the way for Dallas. With Masai Ujiri building around Cooper Flagg for the future, Kyrie Irving's supporting cast is being reshaped with a clear emphasis on positional size, shooting, and versatility in today's NBA.

Nick Angstadt (@NickVanExit) & Isaac Harris (@IsaacLHarris) break down what the Santi Aldama trade means for the Dallas Mavericks' frontcourt depth, debate which player — Daniel Gafford, PJ Washington, or Klay Thompson — is most likely to be moved next, and discuss why the sneaky addition of Tarık Biberovic's draft rights could pay off in a big way down the road. The guys also assess the role of Dereck Lively II's health in Dallas's trade calculus, how Mavs GM Mike Schmitz and Masai Ujiri are quietly building something special around Cooper Flagg, and what Dallas can still do with its mid-level exception as NBA free agency heats up — with Naji Marshall's future and Morez Johnson Jr.'s place in the rotation also on the table.
