Pursuing coaching career
Dudley is in advanced discussions Tuesday with the Mavericks to join the team's coaching staff, independent NBA writer Marc Stein reports.
ANALYSIS
After finishing off back-to-back one-year deals with the Lakers and becoming a free agent this summer, Dudley reportedly had interested in returning to Los Angeles for a third season in 2021-22, but the team appears to have turned its focus to filling his roster spot with a veteran guard, according to Chris Haynes of Yahoo Sports. With the Lakers not looking to retain him and few other enticing opportunities available for him to continue his playing career, Dudley looks poised to retire as a player after 14 NBA seasons. Assuming this in the end of the 36-year-old forward's time in the league, he'll step away from the game with averages of 7.3 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.0 three-pointers in 22.3 minutes per game over 904 career regular-season appearances between the Bobcats, Suns, Clippers, Bucks, Wizards, Nets and Lakers. If he accepts an assistant position with Dallas, Dudley should mesh well with new Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd, who was on the Los Angeles staff the past two seasons and who also coached Dudley in Milwaukee.

The 12-year vet agreed to a one-year, $2.6 million contract with the Lakers this offseason after playing a key bench role for the surprisingly successful Nets last season. In 20.7 minutes per tilt, Dudley averaged 4.9 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.4 assists on 42.3 percent shooting from the floor and 35.1 percent from three-point range. Dudley brings veteran leadership and quality three-point shooting (career 38.4 three-point percentage) to the Lakers -- attributes LeBron James has coveted throughout his career. Dudley figures to serve as the backup power forward to Anthony Davis, where he could see some run with the second unit. Expectations should be tempered, as Dudley has not averaged better than 7.0 points and 3.5 rebounds in the same season since 2015, and in 25 starts for Brooklyn last season, his numbers only marginally improved from his season averages. He'll be a valuable real-life component to the Lakers this season, but he can be ignored in most fantasy formats.
