Today\u2019s going to be a fun, weird day. We\u2019ll have plenty of content, but I wanted to give you all a place to have all the draft day conversations. So here we are.<\/p>\n
There\u2019s bound to be a ton of rumors and chatter, so please, comment and share away. Use The Feed for anything huge please.<\/p>\n
My guess, as of this writing on Monday night, is that the Mavericks will keep their pick at nine and select whoever falls to them. The 30th pick is a different deal entirely, and I hope the front office finds a means to get creative to trade up. Someone good will be there at 30, but there are a lot of guys I expect to go 20-25 and I\u2019ll be a smidge grumpy if they get picked.<\/p>\n
While we\u2019re here, I wanted to tell you about a new game from Splash Sports you can play prior to the draft. It\u2019s a NBA Draft Predictor<\/a> and has cash prizes. If you sign up and use the code MAVS you\u2019ll get $20 in QuickPicks vouchers plus a 100% boost on Splash\u2019s DFS game. This site has a ton going on, including an NFL survival pool that\u2019s going to be big, $21 million! Back to our scheduled programming…<\/p>\n For now, I\u2019m hoping one of the guards falls to us. I need it. We need it. If Mikel Brown falls, I promise I won\u2019t ask anything of the basketball gods for at least a year. Man I love the Draft. If you want to revisit any of our old takes or posts, here\u2019s the link<\/a>. I am partial to all the Draft profiles of individual players. That\u2019s some of the work where I learn the most as an editor.<\/p>\n Everyone, have fun and find me on Twitter or email if you need anything.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Today\u2019s going to be a fun, weird day.
