Good. I have no idea if he can play, but he fits the measurables. Ideally, I would want one two way guy who plan is to make the roster the next season and then another on a two year plan. That doesn't mean you stick with them, but that should be the vision. Next year, I hope we either buy a pick late or go very aggressive at an UDFA type right away and sign him as a two way.

(at TDL) another Wood like gamble for a player with question marks with everyone praying it will work out
(in the summer) all in on a legit 2-way wing
Another comment - McMahon is writing a book about Luka focused on the pressure a young star brings on an organization. A lot of sentences from that article seem as sentences that should be in such book
Yeah, that is what I have been thinking as well. Although, I was thinking another Wood type gamble may be this offseason. I am trying to think who may qualify at this trade deadline. Mavs are going to need to gamble on some upcoming moves. Lets hope they have put in the work and are lucky when they decide to do so.
