Lively has an ankle stress fracture. Gafford now has a knee injury, AD has an abdominal issue / groin. They seriously might not make the play in. And then they have 1 more year until AD and Kyrie have decide if this is where they want to be. And Dallas doesn’t own their own draft pick until 2031. Yikes.
Does Kyrie have a player option this summer? He should opt out in June and Dallas goes into next year with Kyrie on a full max (LOL) or no Kyrie at all (double LOL).
He does. LMAO
If AD doesnt make it back this season – and there are rumblings that his injury might be that serious – then the Mavs have almost no ammo to convince Kyrie to stay, especially if there’s any alternatives out there that can pay him and compete. That said, none jump to mind
Meanwhile he’s got to keep the ship afloat without AD, Luka, Lively and now Gafford. Whos the 2nd best player on the court now – PJ Washington? Klay? Christie? And that’s IF Kyrie can stay healthy, a guy who hasnt played 60 games in 5 years. Twitchy small guys tend to fall off quick as well
They’ve really crushed their own odds to dust just because Luka was a little pudgy
