Dallas Mavericks: Willie Cauley-Stein dominates pickup game

Dallas Mavericks center Willie Cauley-Stein has been working hard to expand his game. The seven-footer opted out of the restart for personal reasons but has been grinding in the gym. Fans are loving his Instagram content from the workouts.

Cauley-Stein is working hard on his jumper this offseason. The 27-year-old has attempted just 19 3-pointers in his five-year NBA career, but expect that to change next season. He discussed at length ways he can improve and how he views his game here.

Trill is already putting the improvements on display. He was joined by Buddy Hield, Julius Randle, and other NBA talents for pickup games in Dallas. Let us take a closer look.

Dallas Mavericks big man Willie Cauley-Stein puts on a show in a pickup game

Cauley-Stein has been working out with NBA trainer Tyler Relph in Dallas. Well, he put together a pickup game featuring NBA players where Trill went off. He was nailing jumpers, showing off his ball-handling, and more. See the highlights here, courtesy of Ballislife.

It will be interesting to see if Cauley-Stein is back in Dallas next season. He has a player option decision to make in the coming days. The 27-year-old is interested in staying with the Mavs but could search for more money on the market. It will be something to watch as the CBA gets finalized.

WCS adding a 3-point shot would expand his game. He is an outstanding roll man, rebounder, and rim protector, so injecting the ability to space the floor makes him the modern NBA team’s ideal center. Expect Cauley-Stein to draw plenty of interest if he hits the open market.
