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

[khaled1987]

Wrong.  The original deal was 3 and Kent Bazemore's remaining 2yr/40mil for 5 and Wes/filler all w/ one year left.  Cuban specifically said 'no'.  Just do the pick instead.  Cuban said this at the time and it was said during TNT's draft coverage.

All too true.

Cuban said they asked for both, they negotiated it till the last minute till it reached the owners level before the draft, Atlanta gave us ultimatum at the end that they want the pick or no deal. Cuban accepted it as Donnie told him he is worth it.
