The Mavs franchise is destroyed. Some of you haven’t realized it yet I know, but get ready for about 10 years of shit. The destruction that has happened is unfixable. The team doesn’t have anyone under age 30 to build around and throws good draft picks into trades like they’re candy.
I am not sure it is really a deep draft, but I get your point. For instance, here are two guys who are in that pick range. Tyrese Proctor wasn't what he was suppose to be, but he is a 6'6 guard who has really shot the ball well. Could be a really nice 4th guard if he can continue to develop.
Creighton Kalkenbrenner is pretty limited, but he is 7'1 and is good protecting the paint. He would be an easy path to move from Powell as your third center. Maybe similar to that big white guy on Boston. Nothing special but servicable.
There are probably 10-15 names who would be high priorioty 2 way guys you can hope they develop.
