Watched the game from home . He was impressive for a rookie no
doubt. As his coach said he will only get better with
experience . Happy for him .

Oh, Warney was noticed but got snubbed by all the pro teams
because of where he came from. Basically every reporter said
so..Had Warney played college ball at any other mid to upper mid
major conference he would have been drafted, most likely 2nd
round..

I'm a huge Warney fan.
Two or three inches taller, with his college skill set, he gets
drafted.
At his height, with shooting and ball handling skills, he gets
drafted.
With his improving skill set and work ethic there should be a
spot for him on an NBA roster next year. I get the sense
coaches like him the more they get to know and see him (some
players are the opposite).

Good read in Newsday:
HTML https://www.newsday.com/sports/basketball/nets/nets-mavericks-1.17456925
An excerpt ...
“He makes things happen,” Carlisle said. “He’s got a nose for
the ball, he’s got very good basketball senses, he has great
hands, and he plays bigger than his size. He’s got a very long
wingspan. He plays above the rim a little more than you think.
He’s what I call a resourceful player, very underrated,
underappreciated, but he’s done good things so far.”
Carlisle said “analytic geeks” might focus on limitations and
envision less upside for a 24-year-old player, but the Mavs’
coach is just old- school enough to appreciate Warney’s
intangibles.
“He makes doubters into believers,” Carlisle said. “Sometimes it
takes a while for a guy like him that appears to be undersized
to get a shot and show what he can do, but he’s our kind of guy.
He doesn’t say nothing. He just goes out and kicks people’s
[expletives]. That’s what you like.”

As the Mavericks near the end of Jameel Warney’s 10-day
contract, league sources say Dallas is lining up a 10-day deal
next with Aaron Harrison of the @nbagleague’s Reno Bighorns.

I dont get it. Warney played very well in the 2 games he was in
only to be benched the last 2. My guess is he is going back to
the Texas Legends after today.. Was that to showcase his skills
to other NBA teams?? This could be what they do with players out
of the G league. Bizarre!!!

At the end of the day, someone in the Mavs organization doesn't
think Warney can play at the NBA level. I thought it was
Carlyle (and maybe it still is), but he made glowing comments
for him publicly recently. Maybe it's the Mavs' GM, maybe it's
Cuban. But Carlyle does carry a lot of weight in the
organization. I hope he gets his shot elsewhere; the Knicks
would be a nice destination for Jameel.
