Duke. Marvin Bagley III. 79. Power Forward. 3. player. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis

Jaren Jackson might be the best fit for the Mavs, but I suspect that as the combine and individual workouts progress you’ll see Bagley stand out as a superior option. His diverse skill set and athleticism are a nice fit alongside Barnes and Smith Jr. He was a man among boys at one of the best programs in the country and always seemed to rise to the moment. Being paired with two other Carolina standouts almost makes enough sense to be logical. He and Dennis Smith would be a devastating pick and role tandem.
