The latest NBA draft expert picks and statistics reveal a shift in the Mavericks’ lineup as Jaden Hardy retreats to the bench, according to RotoWire Staff. The young player, who recently drew a spot start due to several absences in the team, is now seeing reduced playing time as the Mavericks have chosen to give Tim Hardaway a chance with the starters.
Hardy, who has been averaging 8.2 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 2.2 assists in 16.8 minutes through 13 January appearances, started Saturday’s game against the Kings and managed to score 11 points over 15 minutes in a previous match. However, despite these efforts, he has failed to consistently step up, as indicated by his performance over the last few games.
With Hardy’s recent move to the bench, it’s clear that the Mavericks are experimenting with their lineup to find the most effective combinations. This decision could have significant implications for the team’s performance in the upcoming games and the remainder of the season.
