What history can tell us about the 18th pick in the 2020 NBA Draft

Time is speeding up and slowing down in the year 2020 at a rate that I would believe it’s February or December tomorrow. Yet here we are, somehow, in the midst of a fall NBA Finals and the NBA Draft around the corner for Thanksgiving dinner.

The Mavericks have the 18th and 31st pick in this year’s draft, and they find themselves in an interesting moment of team building. This season showed perhaps they are further along in their development, thanks to the superstardom of Luka Doncic. But it also highlighted areas of great need.
