Did the Dallas Mavericks draft the wrong Michigan guy? Aday Mara and Yaxel Lendeborg are lighting up NBA preseason for the Oklahoma City Thunder and Golden State Warriors, but is it too early to judge Mavs rookie Morez Johnson Jr. as he joins Cooper Flagg, Kyrie Irving and the Dallas Mavericks?
Did the Dallas Mavericks draft the wrong Michigan guy? Aday Mara and Yaxel Lendeborg are lighting up NBA preseason for the Oklahoma City Thunder and Golden State Warriors, but is it too early to judge Mavs rookie Morez Johnson Jr. as he joins Cooper Flagg, Kyrie Irving and the Dallas Mavericks?
Nick Angstadt (@NickVanExit) breaks down Aday Mara’s hot start with the Oklahoma City Thunder, including his passing, his improved conditioning and a possible matchup with Victor Wembanyama. He also covers why Yaxel Lendeborg is already being called a Rookie of the Year contender for the Golden State Warriors, and why 12 preseason minutes is far too small a sample to judge Morez Johnson Jr. What did Morez Johnson Jr.’s All-Big Ten, national-title run under Dusty May tell us about the toughness and versatility he brings to the Mavs?
