In this episode we talk about recent news surrounding the Mavericks, including Shams Charania’s report that Anthony Davis played through the end of last season with a detached retina, an eye injury that miraculously did not spiral into a career-threatening situation. We discuss how this is yet another indictment of the incompetent medical staff that the Mavs employed last season.

We then share our impressions from the Mavs first Summer League practice before they head to Las Vegas. We discuss our thoughts about Cooper Flagg, Ryan Nembhard, and how the team might look during Summer League.

We also cover recent comments from Kyrie Irving surrounding his recovery from a torn ACL, and how it is probably wise not to put pressure and exceptions on him to return to action before he is absolutely ready.
