The Mavericks are really happy with Caron Butler and Brendan Haywood so far. Butler has started 4 games for the Mavericks and he is averaging 37.8 minutes, 16.0 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.3 steals per game. He is only shooting 38.1% from the floor so far but look for that to improve soon as he is learning a new position (shooting guard). Brendan Haywood has been a beast in the paint so far for the Mavericks. Haywood has played in 4 games (3 starts) for the Mavericks so far and he is averaging 31.0 minutes, 10.8 points, 8.8 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 2.3 blocked shots per game. The Mavericks need Haywood to keep up the good work because he gives the team toughness, rebounding and defense.
