” I was super excited, I love the Mavs. I kept asking my agent, ‘What do the Mavs have in mind?’ » At the time of being drafted in November 2020, Josh Green did not hide his enthusiasm at the idea of joining Luka Doncic and the Texans. But the latter, rather than recovering the Australian with their 18th choice, had another initial idea in mind: to go up in the hierarchy of selections to offer themselves Tyrese Haliburton.
” We did everything we could to set up a trade and get him back. We did everything we could », insists Mark Cuban, on the microphone of Patrick Beverley’s podcast. The owner of the Texas franchise thus confirms the intentions mentioned a year ago.
Rick Carlisle finally picked up Tyrese Haliburton from… Indiana
ESPN had thus spoken of a substantial offer : their 18th (Josh Green) and 31st draft choice (Tyrell Terry) in addition to a certain Jalen Brunson, now teammate of Tyrese Haliburton with “Team USA”, at the World Cup. Despite this “package”, the Mavs had not found a taker and the back of Iowa State had spun in Sacramento.
Mark Cuban recalls that at the time of this Draft, Rick Carlisle was stationed in Dallas. The following year, the collaboration between the two parties ended and the coach returned to his former team, the Pacers.
” Rick goes to Indiana and what is the first trade he makes? “, Continues the billionaire in reference to this transfer of magnitude, in February 2022, which had seen Domantas Sabonis join the Kings in exchange for the famous Tyrese Haliburton. He will not have had the opportunity to be associated with Luka Doncic, as Mark Cuban would have liked.
