There were some fresh rumbles circulating this weekend about the Clippers, despite their own limited trade optionality, registering interest in Charlotte’s P.J. Washington. League sources also say that the Hornets have designs on pursuing Josh Green from Dallas if P.J. Washington talks with the Mavericks go anywhere.

I would be shopping Miles, PJ Washington and Cody Martin very hard right now. PJW and Martin are both on fair value, multi-year contracts. The #Hornets have done their part by Miles — pick up his QO and give him a second chance. All three of these players have quit on this team. – 8:28 AM

Sources say Dallas has indeed registered consistent trade interest in Kyle Kuzma in addition to past trade runs at Wizards center Daniel Gafford and versatile forward Deni Avdija, who, like Green, signed a rookie-scale contract extension ($55 million over four years) in October. -via marcstein.substack.com / February 1, 2024
Dallas Mavericks PR: Luka Dončić (73) and Josh Green (21) combined for 94 points last night in Atlanta. Their 94 combined points tied Kobe Bryant (81) and Smush Parker (13) for the most combined points by any two teammates in a game in the last 40 years (94), per @EliasSports. pic.twitter.com/DBkpxHcFV1 -via Twitter @MavsPR / January 27, 2024
The Mavericks have kept tabs on Jerami Grant in Portland, league sources told HoopsHype. Perhaps Kyle Kuzma could be added to this list in the coming weeks. Rival executives point to some combination of Josh Green, Jaden Hardy, Grant Williams, and draft compensation as Dallas’ best chance of making a trade for a frontcourt upgrade. -via HoopsHype / January 18, 2024
