Trade Analysis
Dallas gained a modest long-term advantage. Cedric Ceballos gave Dallas more immediate scoring than Dennis Scott did after the swap, but both were short-term veteran pieces. Dallas's edge is modest. The central comparison is Cedric Ceballos against Dennis Scott, with the remaining picks, rights, cash and contract consequences shaping the final margin.
