The Pelicans aren't the only ones holding a mini training camp in California. Indeed, journalist Marc Stein, always very well informed when it comes to the Mavericksinforms us that the 2024 finalists were in Los Angeles recently.
No fewer than 15 players – almost the entire current roster – were present for this small training camp, including Klay Thompson, the main recruit of the summer in Texas.
One clarification: Kyrie Irving was there but did not fully participate, following his left hand surgery in July. The point guard, who was injured early last month during practice, is not yet cleared to play 5-on-5. However, his presence for the season opener is not in danger.
“All I heard about this camp was that on the court it was great and off the court it was maybe even better.”, says our colleaguewho insists on the unprecedented side of this meeting. “I don't remember a Mavericks team that had 15 players together in August in Los Angeles.”
