Mocking The Draft: The Final Mocks


With the draft hours away, there appears to be no consensus across the internet on who the Mavericks will take with the 21st pick.

ESPN.com
Montrezl Harrell, PF, Louisville
"The Mavs loved his workout. He's tough and gives them physicality in the paint. Of the players left on the board, Harrell is arguably the best prospect. He lacks great size, but has great length and elite athleticism. If he can stay in his lane and just focus on being an elite rebounder and defender instead of shooting 3s, he'll be very useful in the NBA. He just won't be a star."

Delon Wright, PG, Utah
"Wright shouldn't be viewed as a potential starter just yet, but he would be a pretty good start. He's not a great shooter, but he gets into opponents on defense, and he has the size (6-foot-5 1/2) to be able to guard both guard positions. He's a willing, able passer, which would be the kind of point guard Rick Carlisle wants on a team with as many scorers as the Mavs. He's smart and tough and knows the NBA game and his brother, Dorell Wright of the Portland Trail Blazers, has been in the league for a decade. Man, I'm starting to talk myself into thinking Wright maybe could be a starter in Dallas next season."

Jerian Grant, PG, Notre Dame
"The Mavericks are point guard shopping (again) and Grant is one of the best prospects at the position. The Notre Dame product has great size for his position and plays with a lot of confidence. He's on the older side but the Mavericks need someone who can contribute sooner rather than later."

CBSports.com
Rashad Vaughn, SG, UNLV
"I think this would probably be a bit of a reach for Vaughn, but the Mavericks will probably want to go high-upside here given the absolute just lack of players on their roster. Vaughn makes sense from that perspective, as he could end up becoming a pretty terrific scorer after some coaching, as he's among the youngest players in the draft."
