The Mavericks have contemplated attempting so as to add an impression perimeter defender earlier than the Feb. 6 commerce deadline, front-office sources on rival groups advised The Athletic. The New Orleans Pelicans’ Herb Jones, who final season was the one non-center to make the NBA’s All-Defensive First Workforce, is one participant who suits that description. However there may be little perception in NBA circles that the Pelicans will truly transfer him. If the Mavericks don’t make a commerce, the accountability of slowing down Gilgeous-Alexander in a possible playoff rematch would go to a mixture of Washington, Marshall and Grimes. “I really feel like I can guard anyone,” Washington stated. “I really feel like I’m comfy guarding smalls, bigs. It doesn’t actually matter.”
