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

[Mavs2021]

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.

Then they better find a way to pick up Whitehead late in the 1st or even early 2nd round. He´s the Hardy of this draft.
