I hated the Rajon Rondo deal from the time it was announced and I think everyone has come to the same conclusion. The biggest loss was not Rajon Rondo's terrible performance in a Mavericks uniform but rather a loss of a young, solid player in Jae Crowder and a 1st Round draft pick.

With that horrible collapse of Rondo along with the DeAndre Jordan situation, the Mavericks were left scrambling to put together a decent, respectable, team. I thought they handled it well with who was left on the market and with the draft (Justin Anderson) but the future of the Mavericks looks very very poor.

The Mavericks now have an old roster with two young guys (Dwight Powell & Justin Anderson) and only have one pick in the upcoming 2016 NBA Draft. A 2nd Rounder, 46th Overall.

I previously wrote about the Mavericks draft options and included three prospects: Gary Payton II, Melo Trimble, and Zhou Qi.

Here are 3 more prospects the Mavericks should be considering -- unless they plan to be the classic Mavs and put minimal effort into the draft and trade away whomever they select like they are simulating through a season of myGM on 2k16.

Here we go:

Isaiah Cousins, PG/SG, Oklahoma

Cousins is the other Oklahoma guard who won't get as much publicity because Hield is so good but he can play too. He averaged 12.6 ppg while shooting 40.6% from the Field and 41.1% from 3 point range. What I like about Cousins is his length and versatility. He could serve as the backup for Deron Williams or Wesley Matthews and could form a good duo with Anderson coming off the bench. He is a solid, capable, defender who can defend both guard spots. He has good athletic ability, length, and sees the floor well making him an intriguing prospect at Point Guard.

Malcolm Brogdon, SG, Virginia

Mavericks already took a Virginia guy last year so they take on this year right? Brogdon is an experienced player who excells on the defensive end, much like Anderson. Brogdon has great length, standing at 6'6. He averaged 18.2 ppg while shooting 45.7% from the field and 39.1% from the 3 point line. I like his work from the charity stripe, shooting 89.7%. A combo of Anderson's defense as well as Brogdon's, coming off the bench could be combination that could shut down the opposing team, allowing the Mavericks to make those runs that win games.

Ron Baker, SG, Wichita State

Baker is not the most intriguing or most impressive of this draft class but he does possess some good traits. He is a scrappy guard who plays solid defense. I like that he is very experienced and is a winner from his time in high school to his tenure at Wichita State. He can shoot it well and has range beyond the NBA 3 point line. He could be very effective coming off the bench with the ability to defend both guard positions as well as space the floor. He sees the floor well and might be able to play some Point Guard if needed. I don't see him developing into a starter at the NBA level, maybe if there are elite pieces around him. He compares to JJ Redick and I think he could play a similar style. A 3 and D guy who could handle the ball and penetrate on occasion. He would fit nicely coming off the bench with Anderson and backing up Wes Matthews.

Let me know in the comments who you think the Mavericks should draft.
