So Moore and Beauchamp measured with great wingspans compared to their size. Moore is 6´5, build like a brickhouse with a 7´0 wingspan. Sounds like a very interesting guard/wing for our system to compliment DFS/Bullock.
I´d probably go Moore, Liddell, Beauchamp, Koloko at #26.
CBS Sports has first pass mocked in DAL for:
Jean Montero SG
OVERTIME ELITE • 6'2" / 180 LBS
PROJECTED TEAM
Dallas
PROSPECT RNK
20th
POSITION RNK
7th
Jalen Brunson's pending free agency could lead to a departure from Dallas, which might have the Mavericks targeting a primary ball-handler with this pick. If so, Montero, a deep-shooting guard who is still only 18 years old, would be a reasonable option.
SBNation has mocked in:
26. Dallas Mavericks - Jaden Hardy, G, G League Ignite
Hardy was a consensus top-five recruit out of high school, and had some league insiders believing he’d contend to be the No. 1 overall pick in this draft as he chose to play for the G League Ignite program over going to college. The 6’4 guard didn’t quite live up to the hype, but the package of skills that made him so highly-touted could still serve as the foundation for a successful NBA career. Hardy is a shooting guard with a nasty stepback package, deep shooting range, and a bucket-getter’s mentality. While Hardy’s offense looks incredible when he has it going, he also has some severe limitations. He’s a poor finisher who lacks pop around the basket, and only made 38 percent of his attempts at the rim, per The Box and One’s Adam Spinella. Hardy also finished with more turnovers (42) than assists (38), and shot 35 percent from the field and 27 percent from three. Hardy’s 88 percent mark from the free throw line might be a better indicator of his shooting talent, but there’s plenty of room for growth across his skill set despite his lofty reputation.
Sporting News has DAL taking:
[b]26. Dallas Mavericks: Christian Koloko, Arizona[/b]
[b]Position: [/b]C
[b]Height and weight: [/b]7-foot-1, 230 lbs.
[b]Age: [/b]21, Junior
Koloko is one of the best interior defenders in this draft class, as evidence of taking home Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year. The 7-footer averaged 18.3 points, 9.7 rebounds and 3.3 blocks per game for Arizona in the NCAA Tournament, showing off his tough and physical attitude in the paint on both ends of the floor. The Mavericks are lacking in size and Koloko is quick and athletic enough to keep up with their small-ball lineups. The 21-year-old is still fairly new to basketball, as he primarily played soccer until he was 15.
The Ringer currently mocks in Jalen Williams (Santa Clara) although they originally mocked Beauchamp.

The Mark Williams numbers are eye opening. He doesn't look like he is 7'2. He also doesn't move like a 7'2 guy. Just fascinating prospect. There are games he looks like a top 10 pick and then there others where he doesn't do much. It will be interesting to see where he lands. If I were to guess, he goes top 15. Where Kessler and Koloko fall a little from their projections.
