This week’s Random Mav of the Week finished off his NBA career here in Dallas. He was traded to the Mavericks in 1990 from Denver for 2 first round draft picks. (Sounds like someone overpaid) His best season for the Mavs was in 91-92 where he averaged 11 points per game.
THIS WEEK'S RANDOM MAV OF THE WEEK IS…
Lafayette “Fat” Lever
From Wikipedia:
Lever was traded by the Nuggets to the Dallas Mavericks in 1990 for the Mavs' #9 pick in the 1990 NBA Draft plus Dallas' first-round pick in the following one. The Nuggets subsequently traded the #9 pick and their own #15 pick to the Miami Heat for the Heat's #3 pick in the 1990 Draft, with Denver sending the Mavs' 1991 first rounder (which was originally the Detroit Pistons' pick they acquired in the Mark Aguirre/Adrian Dantley trade) to the Washington Bullets along with Michael Adams, for the Bullets' first round pick in the 1991 Draft.
Lever did not play one second during the 1992-93 season due to injury, and finished his career in 1994, with career averages of 13.9 points, six rebounds, 6.2 assists and 2.22 steals per game.
Among Lever's career achievements were making two NBA All-Star teams, an All-NBA Second Team in 1987 and an All-Defensive Second Team in 1988.
Congratulations to Fat Lever, he is this week’s Random Mav of the Week!!
