Mavs RUMORS: What Brayden Burries, Nate Ament, Hannes Steinbach Rumors Tell us About the Mavericks
The Dallas Mavericks are deep in NBA Draft smokescreen season with the ninth overall pick, as rumors swirl around multiple prospects just a few hours before draft night. With a brand new front office led by Masai Ujiri and GM Mike Schmitz, the Mavs, Cooper Flagg, Kyrie Irving, and the entire Dallas Mavericks roster rebuild are all on the line with how this pick plays out.
Nick Angstadt, Isaac Harris and Slightly Biased break down every major Dallas Mavericks draft rumor making the rounds, including the Brayden Burries buzz backed by nearly every major mock draft, whether the Nate Ament connection to Dallas is a pure smokescreen, and what a potential trade-back targeting Hannes Steinbach could look like. The crew also discusses where prospects like Yaxel Lendeborg, Darius Acuff, Kingston Flemings, and Keaton Wagler factor into the Mavericks’ decision at nine.

I really hope this team and organization as a whole don't end up having to pick between Burries and Flemmings… I really hope one of Wagler, Mikel or move up to Acuff is what Masai do. I just can't with those guards, you need to swing for a guy that has star upside (mainly because this franchise has no controllable draft pick in the next 5 years) and I just don't see it with those two.
Don't get me wrong, I do think that both of them are gonna be nice in the league but that's just not what this team needs. You don't draft a "Safe or complimentary players" in a stacked draft like this. I feel like the indications of them being mocked to Dallas more than any guard in this class at 9 are telling us something. Wagler, Mikel and Acuff are the guys I'm most comfortable with and would just fit what the team needs and just flat out better. We all have opinions, just my two cents. Hopefully they don't disappoint this Tuesday
In a few yrs, these stooges will be praising Ament.
You suck SB
I want burries or ament. Both will be some of the better players that come from this draft. Just watch
Kinda feeling Morez and Stirtz if we trade back.
Yaxel should be Yaxel. 6'9 with 7'4 wingspan. Moves like a shooting guard. Covers other teams best player.
I think if they want a decent guard they should keep pick 9 or move up. If they want more bites in the apple they could trade gafford + 30th pick to move up. In this scenario you keep the 9th pick , and potentially get 2 more late 1st round picks higher than 30 for gafford + 30
I would take morez 12 and Ebuka or Philon if he falls to 17 or if you really want Burries there is a way you could still get Burries and Hanes steinbach wither way as long as you get a Philon Burries or okorie I think that’s a win
Steinbach next to Wemby, or Chet, or KAT, or Turner… killer combo. And Steinbach could also play the backup C minutes as well.
