Trade & Free Agency 2026/2027

[Smitty]

Good sign that they're bargain hunting for guards, I suppose. I don't know if they just couldn't find the right guy this summer or if they thought they had enough in that area and have since realized their mistake, but I think using this year as a revolving door audition season for guards is one of the more productive approaches they could take. 

I don't really know much about this, specific, player. Do we like him?

I liked him a lot in the draft. Wanted the Mavs to trade back into the first round to get him. In college he was a really good outside shooter. Was a big reason they won the Championship. He wasn't very good his rookie year. As a two-way, for a guard needy team? We like him!

Go watch him against Tech and Auburn last year in the elite 8 and final 4.
