Mavs rookie should be healed by camp

Found September 16, 2013 on BlackSportsOnline:
PLAYERS: Shane Larkin
TEAMS: Dallas Mavericks

Shane Larkin wowed scouts at the NBA combine with his sensational athleticism. The 5’11 guard hoisted the highest max vertical of 44 inches since 2001, when Kenny Gregory leaped 45.5 inches. Larkin broke his ankle during practice and missed vital Summer League action. On the bright side for Dallas fans, their first-round pick is ready to go for training camp. Hearing our friend @ShaneLarkin plans to be ready to roll when the Mavs open training camp. Great news. — Tim Reynolds (@ByTimReynolds) September 16, 2013

Via NBA Injury News  |  September 17, 2013
When Dallas Mavericks guard Shane Larkin broke his ankle during a summer league practice in July, there were questions whether or not he’d be ready to go by the time training camp began. While the initial timeframe for his return was two to three months, Larkin has apparently recovered on the shorter end of that estimate, as Tim Reynolds of the Associated Press reports that it...

Via Pro Sports Daily  |  September 17, 2013
No one knows if the introduction would have eventually happened. But it was Mark Aguirre who introduced Mark Cuban to Ross Perot Jr. thus leading to the ownership change of the Dallas Mavericks. That meeting occurred in the latter half of 1999. By Jan. 4 2000 Perot’s sale of the Mavericks to Cuban for $285 million was finalized. “It might have happened later but I actually...

ESPN ranks Fab Melo the 2nd* worst player in the NBA

Via Celtics Life  |  September 17, 2013
To help pass the doldrums of the NBA offseason, ESPN.com has begun ranking all the players in the league from 1-500, starting with the bottom.  And since there are only 450 roster spots (30 teams, 15 each), there are a lots of guys towards the end of this list who probably won't qualify as NBA players much longer.  That's where former Celtic Fab Melo comes in.  After being...

Mavericks' Jose Calderon is a point guard in the same mold as Steve Nash, Jason Kidd

Via Pro Sports Daily  |  September 17, 2013
Since the millennium changed the Mavericks have been blessed with smart point guards. They did their jobs differently. Steve Nash was a little more shoot-first pass-later. Jason Kidd was the ultimate coach on the floor. And Devin Harris during his time developed into a dependable playmaker and the best defender of the bunch. That all changed last season when the Darren Collison...

The Legacy of Dirk Nowitzki
