Spurs will get Reggie Bullock and an unprotected 1^st round pick swap in 2030 from Mavericks, while both the Boston – Williams ex-club – and the Mavs will get 2 second-round selections.

Boston will also acquire a 6.2 million dollar trade exception.

Grant notched 8.1 points and grabbed 4.6 boards for the Celtics in the last campaign while shooting almost 40% from the 3-point line on almost 4 attempts per match. He can be a crucial player for Dallas to help from the bench to superstars Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving.

Mavericks still can add another player in the free agency as they have a midlevel exception.

“I felt like I had done enough to maintain the conversation … I played well enough to be like, ‘He’s worth this amount, but could be worth more if he was unrestricted.”
