Less than 24 hours after taking home the Orlando Pro Summer League title, the Mavericks will now fly across the country for the MGM Resorts NBA Summer League.
Well, some of them will, and some already have.
Only rookie Johnathan Motley and Chinese superstar Ding Yanyuhang will join the club in Las Vegas after playing in Thursday’s title game in Florida. The Mavs were shorthanded when competing for the championship against Detroit, without four other players who’d already set sail for the desert: Jameel Warney, Brandon Paul, Christian Wood, and Brandon Ashley. They’ll play for other teams out west.
