Stein: Gafford will definitely attract outside interest, but the Mavericks have not yet considered the possibility of trading him

According to the famous reporter Stein, when the Mavericks signed a three-year, 54.4 million contract extension with Gafford at the end of June, they foresaw that he would attract outside trade interest. This contract is the largest contract the Mavericks can provide to Gafford, while ensuring that he remains tradable before the trade deadline.

League sources said that outside interest in Gafford will definitely emerge, but the Mavericks have not yet considered the possibility of trading him.

So far this season, Gafford has played in 5 games, averaging 8.8 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.4 blocks per game.
