Why Santi Aldama is a STEAL for the Dallas Mavericks | Mavs Trade Rumors

The Dallas Mavericks made a shrewd offseason trade to acquire Santi Aldama from the Memphis Grizzlies, adding one of the NBA's rarest commodities, a legitimate seven-foot stretch five, to a roster built around Cooper Flagg and Kyrie Irving. With this low-cost move officially set to close on July 6th alongside the Marcus Sasser signing, the Mavs are quietly assembling one of the most versatile frontcourts in the league. Nick Angstadt and Isaac Harris break down exactly what Santi Aldama brings to the Dallas Mavericks, why Memphis gave him up so cheaply, and how he fits alongside Dereck Lively II, Daniel Gafford, and PJ Washington in an increasingly crowded big man rotation. The guys also discuss what the Aldama trade means for the future of Marvin Bagley in Dallas, the unique Spanish national team connection between Aldama and fellow Mav Sergio De Larrea, and what other moves the front office still needs to make. With the NBA offseason heating up, this episode covers everything from roster construction and lineup versatility to the stunning Jaylen Brown trade that shook up the Eastern Conference. 0:00 Mavs Trade for Santi Aldama 11:42 Aldama's Skillset & Fit 20:03 Big Man Rotation Shakeup 25:10 Bagley Out, Guard Depth Next?
