2026 NBA draft thread

[dirkfansince1998]

Is Burries better than Max Christie or just the shiny object not named Max Christie? Both play SG. I'm in favor of best player available at 9. I'll say it again, I'm underwhelmed by the thought of Burries being the Mavs pick at 9. If he's better than Christie, I'd be surprised. Burries was not the best PG on his Arizona team. If the Mavs have to have a PG,  draft best the PG, not the 2nd best PG who played for Arizona.

Burries played next to Peat and Bradley. Two non shooters. Him making it work in an off ball role is a strength not a weakness. He doesn't need the ball in his hands to make an impact but can do it when the team needs him to play more of an onball role.
