Why Marcus Sasser is the Dallas Mavericks' Biggest Unknown Heading Into Mavs Training Camp

Marcus Sasser could be the Dallas Mavericks' biggest training camp breakout, giving the Mavs the pull-up 3-point shooting and backup guard play they need alongside Kyrie Irving and Cooper Flagg this NBA season. Can Sasser win the Mavs backup point guard job, and who wins the Dallas Mavericks shooting guard battle between Max Christie and Zaccharie Risacher heading into NBA training camp?

Nick Angstadt, Isaac Harris, and Slightly Biased break down whether Marcus Sasser can go from fringe rotation player to a bona fide piece for the Dallas Mavericks, how he stacks up against Sergio De Larrea, and how he fits in a bench group with Naji Marshall, Zaccharie Risacher, Morez Johnson Jr., and Santi Aldama. The crew debates whether Max Christie has a grip on the starting 2 spot, what his contract extension should look like compared to Toumani Camara, Ayo Dosunmu, and Quentin Grimes, and why the Mavs shouldn't rush a Dereck Lively II extension. They also discuss what Mavs Team President Masai Ujiri built in Toronto with Jamal Shead, PJ Washington's role on the wing, and the Locked On NBA Top 100 debates.
