4. How often will Dinwiddie share the floor with Luka Doncic?

One of the best parts about the Spencer Dinwiddie signing is that he can play on and off the ball. Combo guards are valued in today's NBA, and Dinwiddie is an excellent example of that.

Since Dinwiddie can play with or without the ball in his hands, he is someone who could share the floor often with Luka Doncic and play off the ball. Dinwiddie was excellent as a shooter off the catch during his first stint with Dallas, and his ability to play off the ball alongside Doncic was excellent.

Since Dinwiddie can bring the ball up if Doncic needs a breather and can be a secondary playmaker, the possibilities are endless when it comes to these guard-heavy lineups. Dinwiddie's size also gives him an advantage on both ends of the floor as he is 6-foot-5.

If Doncic and Dinwiddie can get on the same page again like they were in the past, then they are going to form a deadly duo. They already know how to play together, and Dinwiddie was the perfect signing for this team.

Doncic's stats may go down this season with Dinwiddie on the roster, but the team as a whole will benefit from having him back on the Mavericks. Dinwiddie ended the season with the Los Angeles Lakers hot as he shot 38.9 percent from three, and he will make the game so much easier for Doncic if he can keep his hot shooting up.
