RE: #31 PICK: Tyrell Terry | 6' 3" | 6' 1.75" wingspan - Kammrath - 11-30-2020 https://twitter.com/IsaacLHarris/status/1333487454276497421 Quote:Roughly 10 minutes after hearing his name come across the television, he received a call from Mark Cuban welcoming him to the team. He also talked to Rick Carlisle and Donnie Nelson as they all expressed excitement on adding Terry to the team. Shortly after that, Terry received a private message from one of his new teammates. Quote:“I was sent an IQ test administered by front offices in the NBA and I did break the record for that test,” Terry said. “I didn’t really find it that particularly difficult. I just locked into the test and did what it asked. And apparently the results broke the record for it.” Quote:According to Synergy Sports, Terry ranked in the 99th percentile in all catch-and-shoot shots last year in college. He also ranked in the 90th percentile in three-point attempts on better than a 40 percent clip. As Mavs GM, Donnie Nelson, describes it- “he can really shoot the piss out of it.” Quote:“I think I knew I had the skillset to be an NBA player since high school, but I fell into the narrative that people said I was too small,” Terry said. “I kind of let that bother me a little bit. I wasn’t quite sure I was 100 percent going to be an NBA player, but I knew I had the skillset…it was [at the Hall of Fame Classic] that I realized I had the skillset to be an NBA player regardless of my size.” Quote:The Mavericks interviewed him twice in the pre-draft process. The first one was early on in the process over Zoom and the next one came after his 13 combine interviews…which Dallas wasn’t part of. The Mavs called his agent directly to set up another interview and had Terry take a personality test before the draft. At that point, Terry knew Dallas was one of the teams he could end up with, but didn’t think they were one of the 3-4 teams who would take him before the Mavs’ second round pick. Quote:“For me to come into Dallas and play with someone like Luka who is going to find me—I thrive off catch-and-shoot situations—if he finds me, I’m going to knock that shot down. With my shooting ability to space the floor for Kristaps and open lanes, I think for me, I don’t know if there could be a better fit for me in the league,” Terry said. Quote:He is also working on his shots coming off screens, despite shooting 57 percent off screens in college (94th percentile per Synergy Sports). He has also been working on improving his body. Terry told The Ringer’s Kevin O’Connor before the draft that he has been on a 4,000-calorie-a-day diet and looking to go from 155 pounds to 175 pounds before the season.

Booooo............... RE: #31 PICK: Tyrell Terry | 6' 3" | 6' 1.75" wingspan - david75090 - 12-06-2020 If Tyrell hits all of his shots, I'm going to be happy with him. RE: #31 PICK: Tyrell Terry | 6' 3" | 6' 1.75" wingspan - FunkBoreland - 12-06-2020 Heck, I'll be happy if he hits at or above 50% My concern is his weight gain. Mavs article has him quoted that his on a daily 5K calorie diet. Of course I want him bigger, but what happens when all of your life you been at 135 - 155 lbs then suddenly your at + 180 lbs? Your body won't move the same, your mobility is going to be heavier, it takes time to adjust. I'm hoping I'm wrong .

RE: #31 PICK: Tyrell Terry | 6' 3" | 6' 1.75" wingspan - madmavsgirl - 12-06-2020 My vote for rookie most likely to make an impact this year. Probably not immediately, but at some point I see him getting a chance. Maybe he can be Seth 2.0. And Rick does love his small ball.

I am pretty sure that the mavs would have made that trade anyway (it came out afterwards that they had already had discussions before the draft getting it in place). I imagine the Mavs' eyes lit up after the 29th pick and saw Terry/Bane sitting there. I bet that they would have drafted whichever one made it through and pulled the trigger on the Jrich/Curry trade.

Why? Their brains and their heart. This is why I am not worried about Terry on being too small to play in the NBA. Terry has the brains he broke the IQ test, and he has the heart after watching all those videos to elevate his game. |
