The Dallas Mavericks are seeking to bolster their roster and support their star player, Luka Doncic. Here are three players that could potentially fill their needs in the 2023 NBA offseason.
Terry Rozier
First up is Terry Rozier, the veteran guard from the Charlotte Hornets. Rozier could provide the two-way impact that the Mavericks have been missing in their backcourt. He is a volume scorer and a solid defender, having averaged 20.2 points per game over the past few seasons while shooting 36.5 percent from deep. At 29 years old, Rozier is in his prime and could still stick around in Dallas for a few seasons. He is under contract until the 2025-26 season, and the Mavericks could trade Tim Hardaway Jr. or Davis Bertans to the Hornets in exchange for Rozier.
Immanuel Quickley
Another player who could potentially provide a two-way impact in the Mavericks' backcourt is Immanuel Quickley from the New York Knicks. Although he hasn't proven himself to be a consistent volume scorer throughout the season, Quickley has scored at least 20 points in 20 games this season and has scored at least 30 points four times. With a backcourt logjam and unlikely to usurp Jalen Brunson as the starting point guard, the Knicks could entertain a trade offer for Quickley, especially since he will be entering the final year of his contract in 2023-24. Quickley is a player that the Knicks could potentially trade for Dallas' pick in the upcoming draft.
Dillon Brooks
Dillon Brooks from the Memphis Grizzlies is another potential target for the Mavericks. Brooks is a primary wing defender and could bring a level of toughness and defensive intensity to the team that they currently lack. However, he is also hit or miss on some nights on the offensive end. Brooks averaged 14 points and three rebounds per game on 39 percent shooting from the field and 33 percent shooting from 3-point range. Brooks will likely re-sign with the Grizzlies, but the Mavericks should be on the lookout just in case he becomes available in free agency or if Memphis is willing to trade him.
