Dallas Mavericks: Ranking the 10 best potential third options for the Mavs

Dallas Mavericks target, No. 7: Khris Middleton, Milwaukee Bucks

The more the Milwaukee Bucks lose in the playoffs the more pressure is going to go on the role players of the Bucks. Every season Giannis Antetokounmpo gets better and although the team has made strides to get better overall, it all comes down to the postseason.

The more they lose prematurely, the more rumblings you’re going to hear about Giannis not playing with another superstar. Khris Middleton is good, but not good enough to be the second-best player on a championship team.

Although I think the talk isn’t fair, it’s the reality the Bucks find themselves in. If Middleton were to get traded to Dallas, he would be the perfect third option to Doncic and Porzingis. Middleton is a player who can score from anywhere on the court and his smooth game would fit nicely with the passing ability of Doncic.
