NBA Rumors: This is the top priority trade in the plans of the Dallas Mavericks

There is much speculation about the creation of a dream team by Dallas Mavericks taking advantage of Cooper Flagg's pick, or even some dare to suggest a trade for Antetokounmpo, but what the management is clear about is that they need a fully guaranteed point guard, as revealed by the latest NBA rumors. They may have already chosen their favorite.

If Dallas Mavericks can vie for glory next season, they need to sign a top-notch point guard, regardless of what they do with Cooper Flagg once he's drafted. Yes, they have Kyrie Irving, but the forecast is that he won't compete again until at least January. Also, a complex injury like an Achilles tear raises a lot of uncertainty about his form and confidence upon return, so he will require a period of adjustment. To contend for the championship, it's essential to replace the magician with a reliable playmaker.

Well, according to the latest NBA rumors, the chosen one is none other than Anfernee Simons. In what seems to be a very intelligent move, the management of Dallas Mavericks sees the Blazers' young point guard as someone who can take on the starting role during the early months of the season and who won't complain later if he has to sacrifice minutes and prominence in favor of Irving. His youth and potential make him very desirable, as well as the fact that only bench players would need to be given up.
