This is their best chance to get it, and I think they should take a risk if they find themselves later in the lottery than they wanted. So if the Mavs find themselves out of the top 8 then I would pick a guy like Philon over Burries for the chance he is that guy.
I've tried to like Philon because I've seen him ranked somewhere in the lottery throughout the year. Yes, he's made a big leap offensively this year vs his freshman season, but I just don't think he's anything special. I'll admit, he's the one I've watched the least. 3 games total. So, I'll have to tune in more during the tournament to see if my opinion of him changes any...
