I'm gonna go ahead and assume the Mavs pick at 10.
I'm obviously not a scout but, it seems to me this is a deep draft. I figured there could be multiple Donovan-Mitchell like calibre players in this. There is good reason to keep the pick.
At 10, the ideal scenario is picking Hendricks. I don't think he'd get picked top 5, but starting 6 he's on his way.
The wors possible outcome at 10, would be picking Gradey Dick and keeping him.
That said, if the Mavs get 10, and Hendricks is gone, I'd see if BKN is interested in swapping picks and players.
Trade: McGee+Bertans+10 for Claxton+Royce Oneal+21.
Keep the pick, would be awesome if Leonard Miller or Jalen Hood-Schifino is still available at 21.
Another version would be:
Trade: THJ+10 for Claxton+Royce Oneal+21+22
Keep one pick and trade the other one.
Probably RB+22 can get you someone.
