Mavericks Bolster Frontcourt, Acquire Gafford and Dozier
Deals Strengthen Dallas' Roster Ahead of Playoff Push
Daniel Gafford Trade
The Dallas Mavericks made a significant move ahead of the trade deadline, acquiring center Daniel Gafford from the Washington Wizards. Gafford, a 6'10" big man, provides the Mavericks with much-needed depth and physicality in the frontcourt. In 25 games with Washington this season, Gafford averaged 8.1 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 1.8 blocks per game.
PJ Dozier Trade
In another move, the Mavericks acquired guard PJ Dozier from the Charlotte Hornets. Dozier, a 6'3" wing, adds versatility to Dallas's backcourt. He is known for his defense and energy, and he can also contribute offensively with his ability to create shots and knock down threes.
Looking Ahead
These trades bolster the Mavericks' roster as they prepare for the playoffs. Gafford brings toughness and rebounding, while Dozier provides defensive intensity and outside shooting. The Mavericks are now well-positioned to make a deep run in the postseason.
