Mavs Film Study: Dereck Lively II Shows Potential as Interior Play Finisher & Offensive Rebounder



Dallas Mavericks rookie Dereck Lively II has displayed intriguing potential as an interior play finisher and offensive rebounder. Watch my breakdown of how he’s already impacting these areas. He faced a switch-heavy, small ball unit (Brooklyn Nets) and a defense deploying traditional pick-and-roll coverages (San Antonio Spurs).

  1. Lively is a gift from heaven for the Mavs.

    Think about where we would be right now if we missed out on that 10th pick….. we would be so screwed

  2. Great vid Grant. Yes that step thru and knowing how to pivot was surprising, in that situation. It's good he's thinking where his feet are.
