Per Instagram, it looks like Josh Green has arrived in Vegas.  Just weird that he isn't going to play in any of the summer league games.

He'll feel right at home! No play last season, no play at the Olympics, now no play in Summer League. Wonder if he'll get any play in preseason? I mean, no reason to stop the trend then right?

How is he going to learn the nuances of the NBA if he doesn't play? Is he hurt? Or is the FO being overly cautious with him? He's going to fall behind with no opportunity to play. That excuse that he played for the Australian National team is wearing thin to me.

My guess is that he's in a trade discussion and they don't want to risk injury.

These trade negotiations are looooong!

Chris Duarte of the Pacers looks like a player. There might be a lot of surprises in this year's draft.

We will see on Green. If the team continues to suck, it would not surprise me if they let him play in the last 1-2 games

Rockets Turkish center Alperen Sangun looks like another gem from the draft along with Josh Christopher and Jalen Green. Not to mention Garuba who hasn't even played. Houston had a great draft. All are great athletes.

That would be great. If the discussions are ongoing it could be a clue into Nico’s negotiation style.

Patient?
Disciplined?
Calm?
Strategic?

Meanwhile, our young guys look like the MBT felt we filled up our quota in '18 and couldn't have any more talented young players on roster after that.

It was so obvious to me that he was going to be at least a solid pickup. Went out and dominated the Turkish Superleague at 18. I was shocked he fell to 16.

Unfortunately while I would've loved him on the Mavs, there was no realistic reason for them to trade in at 16.

So that 3rd Ball brother is having a nice summer league so far.  

-Knockdown shooter
-Strong body which helps him box out and rebound
-Always looking up to push the ball
-Hustle, Hustle, Hustle

He's not the athlete his brothers are but I think he might turn into a solid rotation player someday.

Sengun looks very talented. Then again Kuz looked like an All Star based on SL.  Have to wait and see. 

Totally agree with you though. They seem to be on the right track. Good for Silas. He was put in the worst position possible for a new coach.

Lob, just abused Saddiq Bey on the switch on the screen, good defense, block, playmaking...6'10" and a solid body as a 19 year old rook...

REALLY wish we could have gotten that guy...

[dirkfansince1998]

More of the same so far. Cannot hit a shot from the perimeter. Azubuike is blocking everything in the paint. Defense might be even worse.

[Mavs2021]

It´s no exaggeration to say this might be the worst SL team of all-time.
