Mavericks Expected to Target Cavaliers Sharpshooter Dean Wade

News summary

The Dallas Mavericks are actively seeking to improve their roster depth this offseason, having already added D’Angelo Russell and first overall draft pick Cooper Flagg. They have shown interest in Cleveland Cavaliers sharpshooter Dean Wade, who could provide valuable bench shooting despite the Mavericks' already crowded frontcourt. Wade, who averages around 5 points per game and shoots close to 36-37% from three, would be a depth addition rather than a core player, and any trade involving him might include players like Jaden Hardy, though such moves could complicate Dallas' roster balance. Meanwhile, undrafted guard Matthew Cleveland has signed a two-way contract with the Mavericks, allowing him to split time between the NBA team and their G-League affiliate, after a strong college career highlighted by his scoring and shooting efficiency. Cleveland’s signing adds promising young talent to the Mavericks' backcourt, complementing their ongoing efforts to build a competitive roster. Overall, Dallas is positioning itself as a strong contender in the Western Conference by bolstering both their frontcourt and backcourt depth.
