Ntilikina was selected eighth overall by the New York Knicks during the 2017 NBA draft as a 19-year-old. Over the last four seasons with the Knicks, he never blossomed into a star, but he's been fine in a depth role. He will likely do the same for the Mavericks.

In 33 games this past season, he averaged 2.7 points per game, 0.9 rebounds and 0.6 assists. He's been more noted for his defensive play since joining the NBA and that will likely remain the same.

In 211 career games thus far, the 23-year-old point guard has averaged 5.5 points per game, 2.0 rebounds and 2.7 assists.

Overall, this is nothing more than a depth move for Dallas.
