That is probably true. If Mavs get 2nd pick, I could see him going Wilson over Peterson (which I would be against). Wagler and Acuff would likely be gone by 8 anyways, so the guys he would be choosing from are sort of his kind of guys (Brown, Flemings, Burries). I definitely think he would take Burries over Philon. Burries has some Fred VanVleet vibes.
