NBA trade watch: Dallas Mavericks interested in acquiring Boston Celtics' Jrue Holiday, Chicago Bulls' Lonzo Ball, and Chris Paul
(Image Source - Getty Images) Without Kyrie Irving, who sustained an ACL injury, Dallas is seeking a veteran point guard to bolster its backcourt. According to NBA insider Marc Stein, the Mavericks are currently interested in trading for Jrue Holiday from the Boston Celtics, Lonzo Ball from the Chicago Bulls and free agent Chris Paul. Every decision has its own pros and cons for Dallas as they plan for the offseason. Jrue Holiday's defensive prowess and expensive contract pose challenges for Dallas Mavericks Jrue Holiday, a two-time NBA champ and a six-time member of the All-Defensive Team, continues to be one of the best defensive guards in the league. However, his existing contract with the Boston Celtics, which has three years and $104 million still to go, creates significant financial obstacles for the Dallas Mavericks. While Holiday's defensive talent and leadership are enticing, the complicated process of acquiring him via an NBA trade makes this option less viable for Dallas. Lonzo Ball recently inked a two-year, $20 million deal with the Chicago Bulls, making him a more reachable target for the Mavericks. After being sidelined for two and a half years because of knee problems, Ball has delivered some encouraging performances, like scoring a season-high 18 points against the Denver Nuggets. Given his contract setup and recent play, he could be a solid choice for Dallas as they aim to bolster their backcourt. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Her body cannot endure this level of pain; please help her.

He's putting up averages of 8.8 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 7.4 assists per game, and his leadership and experience are incredibly valuable. With the Spurs acquiring De'Aaron Fox and looking to draft Dylan Harper, Paul's role in San Antonio could shrink, making him a likely free agent option for the Mavericks.

Bringing Holiday in could be tough financially, but Ball and Paul seem like the easier takes.

Mavericks Reportedly Showing Interest in Former Lakers Star
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Despite not being in the NBA playoffs, the Dallas Mavericks are at the top of the NBA world. In a shocking turn of events, Dallas somehow won the NBA Draft lottery, giving them the opportunity to draft Duke star Cooper Flagg. More NBA news: Tyrese Haliburton's Dad Has NBA Ban Lifted for Pacers-Knicks Game 4 Adding Flagg to a team alongside Anthony Davis and Kyrie Irving gives the Mavericks a legitimate chance to win next season. But Dallas will need other pieces to complement the stars on the roster. Irvng will be coming off a torn ACL, so Dallas could look to bring in another guard to help take the pressure off him. The Mavericks have multiple options entering the summer, but it seems that one name has emerged. According to a new report from Insider Marc Stein, the Mavericks could look at Chicago Bulls star guard Lonzo Ball as a trade target. Dallas is expected to look at multiple names, with Ball being thrown out as an option. "League sources say Dallas is expected to at least explore whether there are any feasible trade pathways to Boston's Jrue Holiday — complicated as that would likely be given the three years and $104 million still left on Holiday's contract — while also maintaining an interest in a far more reasonable trade target as we've discussed on the DLLS Mavs podcast: Lonzo name to monitor for Dallas: Chris Paul. The free agent-to-be just turned 40 on May 6, but Paul also just played (and started) 82 games in his maiden season as a San Antonio Spur."

More Photo byDallas would need to trade for Ball, but his contract is very movable for the Bulls. Ball just signed an extension with Chicago, so he will be making $10 million in each of the next two seasons. The Mavericks could easily make a deal happen, and they have pieces that Chicago may find interesting. Bringing in Ball could allow Irving more time to fully heal, and Ball showed that he could still perform well last season. After missing a significant amount of time due to injury, Ball finally made his return last year. In 35 games played, Ball averaged 7.6 points, 3.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists, and 1.3 steals per game. The former No. 2 overall pick could be a nice addition for the Mavericks and help them round out the roster. But like with any rumor, everything remains fluid at this point in the offseason.
