Which Dallas Mavericks players have the most on the line this NBA season, and how could their futures with the Mavs change by next summer?
Nick Angstadt (@NickVanExit) breaks down why Dereck Lively II has more at stake than anyone on the Mavs as he heads toward restricted free agency after injury setbacks. Nick also explains how Max Christie could land a Christian Braun-style payday, why Marcus Sasser has to prove his value, and what Zaccharie Risacher’s second chance after leaving the Atlanta Hawks means for his NBA future. Plus, Nick compares the situations to Ben Simmons and Greg Oden and looks at the Mavs’ odds against the Houston Rockets in the season opener.
