Dallas Mavericks receive trade inquiries for veterans but hold off on Kyrie Irving

The Dallas Mavericks are open to trade offers for Klay Thompson, P.J. Washington, and Daniel Gafford, while holding firm on Kyrie Irving. This approach is part of a strategy to reset the roster around Cooper Flagg. Dallas aims to avoid turning all veterans into distressed assets, prioritizing contracts that can bring flexibility and potential value. Thompson’s expiring contract particularly garners attention as the Mavericks assess their options in the trade market, with interest from teams like Golden State, Houston, and the Los Angeles Lakers. The Mavericks are waiting to evaluate Irving's performance alongside Flagg before making any definitive decisions on his future.
