The Mavs tanked so they could get a top 10 pick which they ended up using on Lively. Clingan was taking #7 and Edey #9. He's huge and very long and sometimes has surprising agility but his production is limited due to minutes and how many mouths there are to feed at Duke so it's a tough evaluation. Having played for just 5 years it suggests he's just scratching the surface. Top 10 pick is not off the table. It'd be nice if they'd showcase him a little. I feel like that would change perceptions.
Mark Williams was as a much better prospect and even he had to spend a couple of years at Duke, and has real tape in the NBA, not sure how that's comparable to Maluach
you talked about how VJ should stay in school but it's probably much more beneficial to a guy like Maluach.
no, no he wasn't. They're pretty identical as freshmen.
