Latest Mock Draft at The Athletic has Dallas taking Tyrese Maxey at 18 and Bane at 31. What caught my attention was this nugget:
"But when I get asked who I think a prime team to move up in the draft is, I think Dallas is it. Could they use No. 31 overall to get up into the No. 12 to 15 or so range to end up with whoever falls out of the wing class? Probably would need to add more than No. 31 to get it done at the higher range, but given who is available come draft night, and the run I expect on wings, Dallas would be smart to look into that option."
I don't see the point of two rookies on this team. I do see the point of moving up if you love someone at 12-15. Unfortunately, I don't see Sacramento (35), New Orleans (39 & 42) or Boston (26 and 30) placing much value in 31. Is there someone in this draft you'd five up 18 and the 2025 first for? Would Phoenix do that at 10?
