The Dallas Mavericks are planning a significant rebuild around Cooper Flagg, following the hiring of Masai Ujiri and Mike Schmitz and the departure of Jason Kidd. A proposed trade involves the Mavericks using their traded player exception to acquire Malik Monk from the Sacramento Kings in exchange for moving up from the #9 to the #7 pick in the 2026 draft, along with cash considerations. This trade could enhance Dallas’s draft strategy, particularly if they target a specific guard. While Monk’s contract is steep, his scoring ability and versatility could provide valuable depth to the Mavericks’ roster.
