‘We\u2019re not afraid to fail’: Knicks’ Star Guard Jalen Brunson Highlights Team’s Fearless Mindset\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\nDallas Mavericks Could Look to Sign Jrue Holiday From Celtics<\/p>\n
The mission before the start of the next season would be to improve the prospects of the squad, and hence Mavericks are set to include fresh faces.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bleacher Report’s\u00a0Dan Favale\u00a0proposed a trade where the Mavericks would receive Jrue Holiday, the Boston Celtics would receive Daniel Gafford and P.J. Washington, and the Brooklyn Nets would receive Dwight Powell and a 2026 second-round pick as a trade facilitator.<\/p>\n
“Dallas badly needs another ball-handler since Kyrie Irving\u2019s ACL injury will keep him out through at least the start of 2026. Holiday could run a good portion of the show until Irving returns without infringing upon developmental reps for likely No. 1 pick Cooper Flagg. The Mavs would have no trouble playing all four of Flagg, Holiday, Irving and Anthony Davis together when they\u2019re at full strength.<\/p>\n
The contract is the issue – Boston signed him to a lucrative long-term deal worth over $37 million at age 37, despite consistently missing around 15 games per season. Given his mediocre 2024-25 stats (11.1 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.9 assists, and 35.3% three-point shooting), trading P.J. Washington, Daniel Gafford, and Dwight Powell for him, even with his elite defense, seems like a steep price to pay<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Having endured a tough 2024-25 season, the Dallas Mavericks will look to come back on track ahead of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":48828,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3793],"tags":[7,686,149,13033,4057,368,166,6,7170,6553,6552,6554],"class_list":{"0":"post-48827","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-dallas-mavericks","8":"tag-basketball","9":"tag-dallas","10":"tag-dallas-mavericks","11":"tag-dallas-mavericks-trade","12":"tag-dallasmavericks","13":"tag-luka-doncic","14":"tag-mavericks","15":"tag-nba","16":"tag-nba-trade","17":"tag-nba-trade-news","18":"tag-nba-trade-rumor","19":"tag-nba-trade-update"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nba\/114548991859485627","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48827","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=48827"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48827\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/48828"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=48827"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=48827"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=48827"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
