5 Dream, 5 reach, 5 realistic free agents for Mavericks to target after draft
By Noah Weber
8. Reach - Tobias Harris
The Dallas Mavericks have already been linked to Tobias Harris this offseason, and although the route to get him would be nearly impossible, he'd be an interesting fit and immediately turn into the third scorer the Mavs need.
Although there is some pushback from Mavs fans regarding them pursuing Harris, he would immediately fill a need the Mavs need. They don't have a single player who can take over and consistently go get buckets outside of Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, and Harris is more than capable of that.
The Mavs were targeting a forward who can handle the ball at the trade deadline last season, and Harris can bring the ball up when needed and create his own shot. He can light up the scoreboard and score in bunches, and he can thrive off the ball when needed. Harris can also be a secondary playmaker in spurts, and his size and shooting combined with this should excite Mavs fans.
Harris doesn't always need the ball in his hands to thrive, and he would get tons of open shots while playing next to Doncic and Irving.
Harris also has stayed healthy for a large majority of his career, and the Mavs need someone they can rely on to play 70+ games every season. Irving and Doncic have had injury concerns in the past, and having another star who is typically always healthy would be huge.
