The Mavericks are still looking for a head coach, and according to Marc Stein of The Stein Line, one name Dallas hoped might emerge as a serious candidate appears likely to stay put.
The Dallas Mavericks know exactly who their franchise centerpiece is — Cooper Flagg. What the organization must determine now is how to maximize his immense potential.
Oklahoma City is exactly where Dallas wants to be. The Thunder have a clear star, in reigning two-time MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. They have the perfect types of talent around him to accentuate his strengths and have created a juggernaut.
The Dallas Mavericks ought to recalibrate around a superstar in the making. After enduring a miserable 2025-26 campaign, the franchise enters the 2026 NBA Draft armed with perhaps its most important asset outside of Cooper Flagg: the No.
The trajectory of the Dallas Mavericks franchise changed drastically in 2025. They went from having Luka Doncic and a ready-made contending roster to blowing everything up and starting from the ground up — with Cooper Flagg now tasked to lead the team to a new era of winning basketball.
As an NBA fan, it hits different when a team's best player is a guy the franchise nurtured from the very start. There's a greater attachment to stars who have been there since the start, who have bled the team's colors since the start of their careers.
There are just five days remaining until the start of the 2026 NBA Draft, and everyone is curious what the Dallas Mavericks will do. They hold three picks, including two in the first round, and they know that this is their best chance to add quality young talent around Cooper Flagg.
We are now just five days away from the start of the 2026 NBA Draft, which is a huge moment for the Dallas Mavericks. They hold three picks, including two in a loaded first round, as they look to build the team around Cooper Flagg under this new management, led by Masai Ujiri and Mike Schmitz.
When members of the Cavaliers’ 2016 championship team gathered in Europe this week to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of one of the greatest moments in franchise history, one notable name was missing.
The 2026 NBA Draft is right around the corner, and the rumor mill is heating up. The Dallas Mavericks have two first-round picks (No. 9 and No. 30), putting the club in a great position to add more young talent to the roster.
Jalen Brunson is at the top of the world right now after leading the New York Knicks to their first NBA championship since 1973. He was electric throughout the series, but in the closeout Game 5, he had 45 points, all of which were needed as Karl-Anthony Towns fouled out.
One of the biggest questions the Dallas Mavericks have left to answer this offseason is who will be the team’s next head coach. The Mavericks’ vacancy opened up after new team front office executive Masai Ujiri opted to fire head coach Jason Kidd and bring in his own candidate for the job.
If an NBA player ends a game with 30 points, that's generally a great night. 40 points is fantastic, and 50 points is an event. That's especially true when that type of scoring outburst comes from an unexpected source.
The Dallas Mavericks announced the location for their new arena, formerly where the Valley View Mall used to be located. The hope is that the new arena will be built and open for Mavs fans to attend games by the 2031-32 season.
The Dallas Mavericks may be doubling down on their continued commitment to Kyrie Irving. Houston Rockets assistant coach Royal Ivey is a candidate to become the next head coach of the Mavericks, veteran NBA writer Marc Stein reported on Tuesday.

Klay Thompson and Megan Thee Stallion ended their relationship in April amid plenty of rumors suggesting the Dallas Mavericks veteran cheated on the rapper.
Daniel Gafford is back in trade talks because the Mavericks are no longer in the same place. This is a new front office, a new timeline, and probably a new roster plan.
The Mavericks haven’t indicated they’re actively shopping Klay Thompson. That said, Dallas faces an interesting balancing act as it attempts to contend while also building around young star Cooper Flagg.
If someone were to ask who’s had the weirdest 24-month span in the history of the NBA, the answer would likely be the current iteration of the Dallas Mavericks.
The Mavericks are entering an important offseason as they look to build their team around star rookie Cooper Flagg. They have picks No. 9, 30, and 48 in the 2026 Draft, along with a new front office headlined by new president Masai Ujiri and first-time general manager Mike Schmitz.
The Mavericks have reached a preliminary agreement on a site for a new arena and entertainment district that would move the team outside of downtown Dallas for the first time in franchise history.
