Author of a failed season, Kristaps Porzingis worries a lot in Texas. Its level has dropped drastically, to the point that a departure is being mentioned for the coming offseason. If so, a team from the East is holding the line in this case.
Since his arrival in Texas, Kristaps Porzingis has been talked about a lot. Seen as a lieutenant capable of helping Luka Doncic wonderfully, the former Knicks has changed a lot. Despite his large size, today he is content to take three-point shots, and… that’s about it.
No defensive presence, no creation, or even impossible for him to dominate on the rebound. His contribution is limited, and this was obvious during these 2021 playoffs. Something is wrong with the interior, which wanted to warm the fans recently.
But will he have the opportunity to play a new season with Dallas? We can logically ask the question, especially as teams are closely following what is happening in Texas. A departure from Porzingis is mentioned, and a franchise from the East is already eyeing the talents of the interior: the Hornets.

The Hornets are very intrigued by the idea of trading for Kristaps Porzingis in the event he becomes available.
But will the old Knick be available? This is the whole point. For now, it seems unlikely that the Mavs will start trading their player, but anything is possible in the space of a few months, especially if the person gets frustrated with the importance of Doncic.
The Slovenian bursts the screen, but for how long? Behind the scenes, it is said that the star is more and more frustrated. If disillusions follow with the Mavs, Porzingis may not be the only one to leave the ship soon.
Kristaps Porzingis is still in trade rumors, even if we are still far from a real offer. For that, the Mavs will have to make a quick decision about their player. We will know more soon.
