Draft Rumors: Mavs want Saric, Wiz "very high" on Bennett

@Eurohopes: According to sources Dallas Mavericks (#13) are as high on Dario Saric as any team in NBA. GM Donnie Nelson was in Croatia last week.
You have to think the Mavs want to package that pick to shift salary, but if they can't, looks like they might want to take Saric to be the heir to Dirk.

Sources tell ESPN's Chad Ford that the Wizards are "very high" on UNLV F Anthony Bennett.
It's widely assumed that the Wiz will go for local product Otto Porter if he's there at No. 3. But don't sleep on Bennett, a prospect with significantly more offensive upside. As a freshman, he lit up the underrated Mountain West Conference for 16.1 points per game on 53.3 percent shooting -- and did it in just 27.1 minutes a night. Bennett is an excellent shooter and ball handler for someone listed at 6'8/240.

If the Wiz fall in love with Bennett, it does shake up the draft boards a bit, although I think Bennett goes top 5 no matter what.
(I will start an all-encompassing NBA Draft Rumors thread about 2 weeks before the draft...I just think it is really early right now to do so, and I don't mind individual threads)

If the Wiz take Bennett, then it raises the chances we get someone we want at #6.
I don't think Noel or McLemore gets to us, but it raises the odds of Oladipo, Burke, or Porter falling to us.

I'm definitely most interested to see how the Magic like Burke. I think that's a big tell on who will fall to us

I'd love it if the Wizards take Bennett

I'm not so sure. I think Bennett is a top 5 lock. I guess I could see it raising the chances of Oladipo or Burke, but there is no way Porter falls to 6

Something's gotta give.
If Bennett goes in the top 5, that leaves some combo of Oladipo, Burke, Noel, McLemore, and Porter left.
If Cleveland and Washington both pass on Porter, he could fall to us because Orlando and Phoenix both have bigger needs than the 3.
Orlando could take Burke or Noel while Phoenix will probably take McLemore or Oladipo.
