Larkin out for 2-3 months with a broken foot. I think this guy has a real chance in the league but this hurts. Bad offseason for the Mavs

@espn_macmahon: Source confirms @WojYahooNBA tweet about Mavs 1st-rounder Shane Larkin breaking his ankle during summer practice.

Terrible.

Praying this doesn't happen to one of our guys.

It's a broken ankle. Much worse. See: Andrew Bogut these last two years.

I am really jealous of Atlanta. I really wish we could have found a way to get Dennis Schroeder. He is so smooth with the ball and passes like early White Chocolate

check out this pic of cj mccollum when he was in high school. apparently he was tiny before having a growth spurt.

That's him in high school? Are you sure that's not a 4th grade picture?


check his wiki page. it talks about his size as a freshman.

Waiters is pulling a MCW, without the rebounds and assist.

Some free agents on other teams who've caught my eye early in the Summer League:

Kenny Kadji
Keith Benson
Jeremy Tyler
DJ Kennedy

I was pissed when we drafted him with our 2nd round pick and then immediately sold him for cash. I thought he was actually going to be legit. It would be nice to have him, I guess.

Perfect way to end McLemore's night...missing a three point shot that would've tied the game. 4 - 23 shooting. Eww

And I haven't watched much of the game, but Shabazz seems quiet. 5, 1, and 1, near the end of the fourth quarter.

McLemore is definitely not in basketball shape. 4/23 with 0 assists is just disgusting, even for summer league.

He needs a lot of work to be ready for the season and I wouldn't be surprised if he had a Kemba Walker-esque terrible shooting year his rookie year

Its not the shooting for McLemore its that he looked exhausted.

So I guess McLemore and Zeller are both busts now? :roll:
