Mark Cuban Would Consider Drafting Brittney Griner 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Wed Apr 3, 2013 6:00 am

Mavericks owner Mark Cuban would be willing to give Baylor women's star Brittney Griner the opportunity to prove she could play in the NBA, according to an ESPN.com report.


Cuban said he would consider selecting Griner, a 6-foot-8 three-time All-American and Big 12 player of the year, in the second round of the draft. If the Mavs don't draft her, Cuban said he would have "no problem whatsoever" inviting Griner to try out for a spot on Dallas' summer league team. 


"If she is the best on the board, I will take her," Cuban said Tuesday.

He jokes, I think, but it may be true. She deserves a shot if she wants it.
