Luka Doncic is a very important rebuilding cornerstone for the Lone Rangers, but the Current Lone Ranger has not been able to build a competitive enough squad for Doncic, not to mention that Porzingis often misses the team due to injury.
Given that the Western Conference is currently a weaker division than it was last season, this may be an opportunity for the Lone Rangers to take advantage of, that is, to build a competitive lineup for Luka Doncic as soon as possible. According to the US media Brett Siegel, the Lone Ranger first has to get rid of Porzingis's contract, and the trade with the Spurs may allow the Lone Ranger to complete this:
The Lone Ranger gets: Derek White, Lonnie Walker, Thaddeus Young
Spurs got: Porzingis, Moses Brown, Josh Green
The trade between the Lone Rangers and Spurs will certainly affect the entire Western Conference landscape, especially after the Lone Rangers became a team with better lineup depth. In fact, so far this season, the Lone Rangers have been a team with good defensive strength, and what they really need to strengthen is the offensive end, especially the scoring ability of the bench.
In this deal, Derrick White and Lonnie Walker will give the Mavericks more consistent scoring ability on the outside, and Thaddeus Young can also fill Porzingis's role in the frontcourt.
The Spurs are currently in the rebuilding phase, they have lost tough players such as DeRozan, Gay and Mills in the past offseason, and the Spurs will also enter the era of players such as Dejuntai Murray and Kelden Johnson.
Still, Porzingis can be a key part of the Spurs' offensive end, not to mention that the Spurs have been very good at using the inside players with excellent skills for many years, which is why Porzingis may be suitable for the Spurs.
