Mavs bungled this from the day the signed him to his rookie deal. They should be called to the carpet for how poorly they played this out and what garbage asset management this has been from day 1.
All that said, Jalen doesn’t get to come out of this smelling like a rose (no pun intended). The charade of setting meetings and flat out making one of them up is sorry. And it doesn’t matter if it was just JB’s camp doing it, he is a grown ass man and can speak for himself.
JB wants to run his own show and I don’t begrudge him that. But be careful what you wish for. That RJ Barrett gravity hits a bit different than the Luka gravity.
Bottom line: No one comes out of this free from criticism.
