Mavericks Could Revisit Trade Talks With Pistons For Bojan Bogdanovic

Jul 12, 2023 3:55 PM

The Dallas Mavericks have been previously linked with a trade with the Detroit Pistons for Bojan Bogdanovic, who is a player they reportedly remain interested in acquiring.

"I have heard some rumbling about revisiting the Bojan Bogdanovic talks," said Tim MacMahon Which is interesting. He would certainly add some offensive firepower.

"I don't know if they've got the assets to pull that off."

Bogdanovic is signed through 24-25 after signing a two-year, $39.1 million extension with the Pistons at the start of last season.

MacMahon believes it is more likely that the Mavericks address the center position.

The Mavericks only have the 2027 first round pick to trade and also are hard-capped after trading for Grant Williams in a sign-and-trade. Dallas also tried to acquire Matisse Thybulle, but the Portland Trail Blazers matched their offer sheet.

Pistons Continue To Receive Trade Interest On Bojan Bogdanovic

Jul 5, 2023 1:52 PM

The Detroit Pistons continue to receive trade interest on Bojan Bogdanovic. The Pistons acquired Bogdanovic from the Utah Jazz before the 22-23 season and then signed him to a two-year, $39.1 million extension.

The Pistons insist they would like to keep Bogdanovic, but that position is widely considered to be posturing.

Bogdanovic was limited to just three games after the All-Star break last season due to an Achilles injury, but it is not considered serious by rival teams.
