Dallas Find Doncic Partners... Signing Christian Wood

 

Dallas succeeded in reinforcing the center line, which was the biggest concern.

On the 16th (Korean time), ESPN reported that the Dallas Mavericks and the Houston Rockets have reached an agreement to trade Christian Wood.

Christian Wood leaves Houston for Dallas. In return, Dallas gave the 2022 first-round pick (26th) and Boban Marjanovic, Trey Burke, Sterling Brown and Marquis Chris to Houston.

- Dallas get: Christian Wood

- Houston get: 2022 26th pick, Boban Marjanovic, Trey Burke, Sterling Brown, Marquis Chris

Dallas, who had deep concerns about height after trading Kristaps Porzingis to Washington in February of this year. By signing Wood, the center team was reinforced at once.

Wood, who moved to Houston from the free agency market in 2020, recorded 21.0 points, 9.6 rebounds and 51.4% from the field in the 2020-2021 season. He made 1.9 three-pointers per game with a 37.4% chance.토토사이트웹

Last season, he also excelled in offense and fought hard against tanking team Houston. He played 68 games, averaging 17.9 points, 10.1 rebounds, 1.9 three-pointers, 50.1% from the field and 39.0% three-pointers.

Combining excellent shooting power and speed, Wood is a player who can pick and roll and pick and pop in a 2v2 game. He is a perfect player as Luka Doncic's 2-2 partner. In terms of attack, it is an unquestionable card. He has an attack power that Dwight Powell, Maxim Kliva, does not have. This is the reason why this trade from Dallas is bound to be well-received.

However, the skinny body and relatively poor defensive sense are disappointing parts. In Houston, this was also a problem. Wood's shaky defense is something the Dallas coaching staff will have to fill in the future.

Meanwhile, Houston, who traded Wood 토토사이트, is expected to accelerate the rebuilding of the big men.

There is Alfren Sengun, a rookie big man from Turkey who made his debut last season, and in the rookie draft to be held on the 24th, the big man is most likely to be selected with the 3rd pick. If one of Chet Holmgren or Paolo Banchero is nominated, there will be no major problems with the rebuilding of the Big Man Gene.
