4:32pm: Dallas has officially waived Hinton, the team’s PR department tweets.
4:15pm: The Mavericks are waiving guard Nate Hinton, Tim Cato of The Athletic tweets. Hinton was re-signed to a new two-way contract early this month.
Hinton, who finished the 2020/21 season on a two-way deal with the Mavs, received a qualifying offer equivalent to another one-year, two-way contract, so he likely simply accepted that offer at the time.
Undrafted out of Houston in 2020, Hinton appeared in 21 games for the team as a rookie, though he saw very limited minutes. He averaged 2.0 PPG in 4.4 minutes per contest, but saw more action with the G League’s Santa Cruz Warriors in the Orlando bubble season, posting averages of 10.6 PPG and 7.1 RPG in 10 games (23.0 MPG).
Rookie forward Eugene Omoruyi occupies the other two-way slot for Dallas.
Which former/current Maverick would be a better Robin to Luka’s Batman… Josh Howard, Roy Tarpley, Kristaps Porzingis, Rolando Blackman or Jason Terry? Feel free to say why…
Terry is versatile and would find a way to match or enhance Doncic’s style and temperament, and make the 3s. That’s who I’m thinking of when I see Hardaway, who will intentionally stay off another guy’s wavelength to be the best he can be.
Gotta be Blackman (a real legend of the game) or KP6, the other 3 just role players, which are good to have but if any was to be a #2 of a team, we would be talking like of a bottom 3 team in the league, right?
If Dirk is the #1, you can leave the #2 slot empty and win!
I don’t remember much of Blackman.
Jason jet or Rolando because Rolando was a good defender. Hey would be a great 1, 2 scoring punch with Luka.
I dig this website but I feel like it would be so much better with a lil BIG3 coverage
