Dallas Mavericks rumors: Jalen Brunson untouchable in trade talks

The Dallas Mavericks fielded plenty of phone calls ahead of the NBA’s trade deadline. They made a deal just moments before the final buzzer to acquire J.J. Redick and Nicolo Melli from the New Orleans Pelicans. The Mavs lacked the draft capital to trade for a third star, but they explored multiple ways to upgrading their roster. They were ecstatic to acquire a sharpshooter like Redick, and fans have seen that Melli can make an impact too.
