2023 DRAFT: Mavs take Lively, OMP, sign Mike Miles to 2-way, sign Jordan Walker

[Chicagojk]

I’ve been looking at prospects, allowing myself to daydream. Probably setting myself up for disappointment…

Cason Wallace may actually BE Jrue Holiday. Incredibly poised, smart, tough. Knows his role. Has some offensive upside still. Only 34-35 % from 3 but has a nice compact shooting motion. NBA level athleticism. Switchable defensively, he will probably be able to guard up due to his smarts and strength. If he’s BPA when we pick I hope we take him. I know guard isn’t the most pressing need. He’s also from Dallas, went to Kentucky. Like Maxey. Turns 20 next November.

Interesting.  I have not watched many of the draft prospects and won’t until we know if we keep our pick or not.  But he was one of the guys I wanted to be picked before us and was focused on 5-6 bigger prospects.  I agree though that Dallas needs to look at everyone though.  Even guys who are not a perfect fit.  Kentucky has had some history of guards being undervalued in the draft as well.
