2026 NBA draft thread

Vecenie has Mavs taking Burries at 9 and Evans at 30 in his latest mock.


Although I take all of these rumors at face value now.  It seems like one starts and everyone jumps on it and says that is what they are hearing.

Perfectly reasonable to assume the Mavs might have a Wing/Big rated higher than the last of THE5 guards that fall to 9. Burries is the last one standing more times than not. If they aren't as high on him as Rich Paul wishes, then it's likely they look at trade back options as well as picking someone like Ament/Yaxel/Mara/Johnson/Carr instead. BPA for us fans are likely different than BPA of our front office. We see it every draft.
