No other available big has a combination of skills/upside this enticing.

Honestly the best guy that might be available is Deandre Jordan. I don’t care what he did to the Mavs before, his game fits what they are trying to do now. He would cover up any rebounding deficiencies that Barnes would have having to play the 4. I would not want DJ on a long term contract though.

And Nurkic, I actually really like him. He’s also young and massive. I’m not sure what Portland’s cap situation is but even though Nurkic is not the rim protector that Capela or DJ are I think he’d be a good fit in Dallas. Just like Capela though he’s going to cost a ton of money.

+++++

I love Capela too. Excellent fit and would screw with Houston
