How A Bennett Stirtz/Dereck Lively II P&R Duo Can Help The Mavericks Offense | DLLS Mavs Podcast
Become a DIEHARD! alldlls.com/diehard
Bennett Stirtz isn’t the top guard in the 2026 NBA Draft class, but he can absolutely excel on the offensive end where the Dallas Mavericks need help as they rebuild the team around Cooper Flagg and (hopefully) Kyrie Irving. The DLLS Mavs crew discusses his potential fit. Plus, they get into some stories from around the league, react to the latest mock draft from ALLCITY’s Will Gottlieb (you can find it here: https://alldlls.com/nba-mock-draft-keaton-wagler-second-wave-prospects/), and much more, all live on YouTube.

Dereck Lively can't stay off the injured list. How can you count on him?
Trade Kyrie now while he still has some value, preferably for another pick in this draft.
Any of the top 5 will do. It's your opinion which guard is better
Stirtz is ideally a 6th man, a strong starter. Highly doubt he has all-star potential. He'll go in 20s the draft.
Better verison of TJ McConnell. Ceiling is Austin Reaves and even with Reaves who averaged 23ppg, 5 n 6 is debated to be backup because his defense is bad.
If Mavs somehow gets Stirtz, he'll be an awesome backup PG and good starter because he is a very smart player.
OKC GET: Klay Thompson and future salary relief
DALLAS gets: Nikola Topic, Alex Caruso, 17th pick, and 2028 Dallas pick swap right back
Everybody just casting Gafford off!! He played hurt most of the year, with great effort. Send him to LA then. Luka can use him
Why is it all of a sudden cool to want Dort? Am I crazy for not wanting a player that intentionally tries to injure others?
If lively injured again i donk thin he is uniform dallas in 2027
Dereck Lively should not be part of ANY plans the Mavs make. If you get something out of him, great, but you'd better build your team on the assumption that you won't have him.
