Mavericks owner Mark Cuban and president Nico Harrison have said the No. 1 offseason priority was to keep Brunson. Now they know they’re in a tussle with New York.
For Harrison, preparation for this draft night was starkly different than last year’s draft, which took place a month after his hiring. The Mavericks didn’t have a first- or second-round pick. Many of the calls Harrison received leading to and on draft night began with rival general managers congratulating him on his new job.“No teams are congratulating me, that’s for sure,” Harrison said with a smile. “Nobody wants to help us out, trust me. The conversations are different.
“We’re open to anything,” he said. “We’re not calling people trying to trade our players to try to get into the draft, but you never know what comes up.”Thursday marked the second straight year, and the third time in four years, that the Mavericks did not make a first-round selection.
