Which players deserved investigation for the Dallas Mavericks’ problems in 2018-19?

Aug 2, 2018Jan 31, 2019Feb 6, 2019

Aug 2, 2018 — Mark Cuban

The decision this board surrounds ultimately brought in Chinanu Onuaku. Later outcomes never rewrite the board.

DAL on 2018-08-02: the listed basketball needs were event creation, rim protection, rim pressure. 2 player(s) were publicly on the market, but none had a source linking this team to them. 1 open-market candidate(s) matched at least one listed need. Market access, basketball fit, price, salary route, and legality remain separate.

Markieff Morris: Markieff Morris was on the public trade market, but no source linked DAL to him. His prior basketball profile addressed one listed need: rim_protection.

Ryan Anderson: Ryan Anderson was on the public trade market, but no source linked DAL to him. His strongest observed functions did not match the listed top needs.

Historical decision board. A public-market player is not presented as a team target without a named team link. Minimum outgoing salary is not exact legality. Missing asking price is not a zero price. Later outcomes do not alter the decision-date board.
