He still isn't the player that Mavericks fans want him to be, but Jaden Hardy's recent ascension makes him tradeable.
With just weeks before the NBA's February 5 trade deadline date, conversations around what players will and won't be traded have been at an all-time high, especially with the Dallas Mavericks.
