Draft Express is hearing that the Mavs target with the 24th pick is Florida PG Nick Calathes.
We're receiving some indications that the Dallas Mavericks are still in hot pursuit of Greek-bound Nick Calathes with the #24 pick. Owner Mark Cuban and head coach Rick Carlisle are both fans of the big point guard, and appear to be willing to wait a year until signing him. There is a school of thought that Calathes may be able to get out of his contract with Panathinaikos and play for the Mavs this year already, possibly with a buyout, but we're not sure of how accurate that is...
...Sacramento likes Calathes at 23, but appears to be leaning in other directions, although that could change.
Mike Fisher has also heard that the Mavs' really like him'. This goes along with the quotes yesterday that Dallas thinks they can get their guy at 24, because I don't think I've seen a mock that has Calathes going higher than 22. Chad Ford currently has him at 26 to Chicago.

thesportsgeeks.com is holding an NBA Draft Live Blog, and we’d love for some people to argue with us, especially about the blatant idiocy of trading Rondo. come check it out. We’re also talking about how Shaq could be the next KG, and how the Cavs need to try and imitate the Celtics when putting together a championship team. We also are talking about how Thabeets suit is an achievement in tailoring. Join in, it’ll be fun.

"Daryl (Morey, the Rockets general manager) and I were talking this morning. We both discussed how great Tracy is in the playoffs. There's very few people who have the ability to step up their games in the playoffs and he does. So we're not looking to run away from Tracy." - Houston Rockets Owner, Leslie Alexander
