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

[Nowitzki Way]

Wasserman updated his mock draft for bleacher report today and still has the Mavs taking Lively and passing on Hendricks which would be…. A choice

If we go off the small samples of what Nico is looking for, i think he likes pedigree. Big time recruits. And maybe even big time recruits whose shine has slipped a little.

Look at Hardy last year. We've also worked out Emoni Bates.

If you go back 1 year, Lively was a top 5 recruit in the nation. Hendricks was nowhere in the top 50. So its not out of the realm of possibility that the Mavs (and many other teams) have Lively rated higher than Hendricks due to this.
