He followed that up with 29, 29, 19, & 24 before going out with the bad back again. He was the top rated PG coming into the season, and has shown enough flashes, despite the injuries, to stay in that top 10 area of the draft. His size and willingness to shoot the 3 ball are definitely a plus, and things this team could use going forward. He still has one of the highest upsides for me long-term, possible one of the bigger bust potentials also. All of the guards have flaws. The Mavs may not get their pick of the bunch, but I'd be happy with any 4 of them, assuming they pick in the top 8 and the draft goes how I have it stacked.
He definitely has upside, but the combination of poor shot selection and high turnover rate is concerning. I think he is going to require some significant development, and I am not sure this is the place to do it.
