That's why I think we could still see a Gafford trade on draft night. Of course, the Hawks would have to miss out on who they'd like at either of those picks, and the Mavs would have to have their guy available, but it makes a lot of sense to me for both teams.
Does DAL really want to take on another guaranteed rookie contract given the declining quality of this year's draft? (I'm looking at you OMax). Of course a non-guaranteed deal might leave them with another Brunson-type fiasco in a couple years.
