Bertans is coming off a season where he averaged 4.6 points and 1.2 rebounds per contest while shooting 39.0% from the three-point range.

That said, the sharpshooter has a lucrative contract that will pay him $17 million next season, so the Mavs will no longer have him on the books.

The Thunder get Wallace, who played one season for Kentucky and averaged 11.7 points, 3.7 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 2.0 blocks per contest while shooting 44.6% from the field.

With the 12th pick, the Mavs will select Derrick Lively, who averaged 5.2 points, 5.4 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 2.4 blocks per contest while shooting 65.8% from the field in one season at Duke. 

Via Charania: "Sources: Dallas is selecting Dereck Lively at No. 12. Mavs have coveted the Duke big man throughout the process."
