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

I think Hendricks might be my favorite to drop. I think he already is Maxi who might be able to play more minutes than him, but his ceiling is JJJ (hopefully less injured as well). He would be a day 1 starter in a position of huge need for us IMO. If we keep Maxi, that is the perfect backup to him too.

I don't think most people see JJJ even at the extreme ceiling outcome. JJJ is 6'10/7'4ws and over 240lbs. Hendricks is not even close to that. Most comps are like current Jerami Grant. Maybe a decent ceiling comp is Jerami Grant mixed with some John Collins. Developing to current Jerami Grant really fast isn't bad though considering it took Jerami Grant himself many years to get to this point.
