The Dallas Mavericks struck gold immediately after the 2025 NBA Draft ended, as they promptly signed Ryan Nembhard to a two-way deal along with Miles Kelly. Nembhard was easily one of the best undrafted players of this year's draft class, and the rest of the NBA will quickly realize that Cooper Flagg isn't the only Mavs rookie with star potential.
As a senior at Gonzaga, Nembhard led the nation in assists with 344, and this ranked fifth all-time for assists in a single season in NCAA history. Nembhard's final season as a Bulldog was historic, and he'll have the chance to carry this positive momentum into his first season with the Mavericks as they try to return to the NBA Playoffs after a disappointing season.
