Why Naji Marshall's New Contract REVEALS the Mavs' Future with Cooper Flagg

The Dallas Mavericks have officially extended Naji Marshall for three more years, locking in one more piece of the roster they're building around Cooper Flagg and Kyrie Irving. With the NBA's salary cap rules forcing most teams to turn over their cores within a few seasons, what does Dallas's long-term frontcourt spending actually say about where the Mavs are headed?

Nick Angstadt (@NickVanExit), Isaac Harris (@IsaacLHarris), & Slightly Biased (Slightly Biased) break down Naji Marshall's new deal, what it means for Dallas's cap sheet through 2029-2030, and why Masai Ujiri's front office keeps betting on size and versatility. They dig into where PJ Washington, Daniel Gafford, and Dereck Lively II fit long-term, plus the latest on Klay Thompson's buyout situation with the Miami Heat. What else are the Mavs quietly building behind the scenes?
