10 players Mavericks might replace Tim Hardaway Jr. with by the trade deadline

9. Bojan Bogdanovic

Bojan Bogdanovic is someone who has been linked to the Dallas Mavericks often recently, and Detroit could finally fold and ship him off this season before the trade deadline.

There were multiple instances this offseason that Bogdanovic was linked to Dallas, one of which was from right before the draft and once after the draft, but no move has materialized yet. Despite Bogdanovic being the Pistons' best scorer consistently, they could look to move him to open up more minutes for their young guards.

The Pistons have Ausar Thompson, Cade Cunningham, Jaden Ivey, Killian Hayes, and Marcus Sasser all on their roster. Considering that the Pistons aren't competitive, it may be a better move to ship Bogdanovic to a contender rather than him take minutes from their young core.

Dallas would definitely have to attach something else in a trade with the Pistons centered around Tim Hardaway Jr. and Bogdanovic, and the Mavs could consider moving Josh Green in a deal if they don't extend him this offseason.

Killian Hayes is also someone who has been mentioned in rumored trade talks with Dallas and Detroit, and maybe they could revisit those talks and send both Hayes and Bogdanovic to Dallas.

Last season for the Pistons, Bogdanovic averaged 21.6 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 2.6 assists per game while shooting 41.1 percent from three.

His fit in Dallas would be interesting, as they don't need another scorer per se, but he would make Dallas' offense better and add another shooter next to Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving.
