Dallas Mavericks: NBA Draft picks they hold over the next five years

Dallas Mavericks assets in the NBA Draft over the next five years

The Dallas Mavericks have not been shy about trading away draft picks in recent seasons. That has paid off too. The Mavericks traded two first-round picks to move up in the 2018 NBA Draft for Luka Doncic. That gave them a reason to deal two more first-rounders to the Knicks for Kristaps Porzingis in Jan. 2019. Dallas does not regret either trade.

That leaves the Mavs light on first-round selections over the next five years. They also have a second-round pick swap with the Golden State Warriors this year. That means Dallas will be selecting 31st overall when the draft takes place.

All the trades can make it difficult for Mavericks fans to keep track of what picks the team owns. Let us take a closer look at their NBA Draft assets over the next five years. The information on picks and conditions is via Real GM.

What NBA Draft selections do Dallas Mavericks own in 2020?
