According to multiple reports, Dennis Smith Jr. is set to work out with the Mavs next week as the point guard looks to continue his NBA career. Smith was selected ninth overall by Dallas in the 2017 NBA draft, but only spent a season and a half with the franchise before being sent to New York Knicks in the blockbuster trade for Kristaps Porzingis.

Per Keith Pompey of The Philadelphia Inquirer, the Sixers are working out former lottery pick Dennis Smith Jr. as part of a veteran minicamp. Smith, 27, has played seven years in the league including most recently with the Brooklyn Nets in the 2023-24 season where he averaged 6.6 points, 3.6 assists, and 2.4 rebounds.

Sixers fans may be familiar with Mintz, who signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Sixers on Sept 1. The 6-3 point guard also played with the team during preseason. After being waived on Oct. 16, he joined the Delaware Blue Coats. Mintz’s highlight this season was scoring a career-high 45 points against the Long Island Nets in the G League.
