4 trade targets for the Dallas Mavericks as they attempt to find more help for Luka Doncic. 

Heading into the offseason, the No. 1 priority for the Dallas Mavericks should revolve around finding a true second option to place next to Luka Doncic next season. The experiment with Kristaps Porzingis simply hasn’t worked and it’s time for the Mavs to pivot.

If an opportunity presents itself in free agency, fully expect the Mavs to be big players – although, that can’t happen without a trade or two. If Dallas is going to add a legit second option next to Doncic, they’re likely going to make it happen via the trade market.

Even though the NBA playoffs are still very much underway, there are already whispers of teams lining up to put the full-court pressure on many players expected to find their way to the trade block during the offseason.

Here are four players that the Mavs should be interested in, via the trade market, heading into the offseason.
