## Resource

In this episode we react to the 2026 NBA Draft Lottery, which saw the Mavericks get the ninth overall selection in June’s NBA Draft. They also possess the 30th and 48th overall picks in the 2026 NBA Draft. After months of anticipation and agony, we can now hone in on evaluating players who may be available at nine. We also discuss what philosophy the new Mavericks front office of Masai Ujiri and Mike Schmitz may bring to the scouting process.
