MY (2ND) GOAT!!
Heās been rocketing up the leaderboard this year!
Current list:
1. Dirk 1522
2. Brad Davis 883
3. Derek Harper 872
4. Ro Blackman 865
5. Dwight Powell 638
6. JJ Barea 637
7. Michael Finley 626
8. Jason Terry 619
9. Devin Harris 608
10. Shawn Bradley 582
But – will he make it beyond 5th?
Iām guessing no. Heād have to stay around for 3 more seasons at the very least. And while the organisation has not exactly indicated they want to move on from him – ever – heād be almost 36 by then. Even if he stays around beyond the current contract as a sort of village elder on a minimum, heās unlikely to play regularly enough.
The only way he does rise further is if Mavs start blowing teams out regularly and he gets a few minutes of garbage time in every game in 2025-2027. So what I’m saying is: let’s make Dwight the Maverick with 2nd most games played!
