We are less than three weeks away from the NBA Draft Lottery, which will decide where the Dallas Mavericks land in the draft. Tonight, the NBA will have a coin flip to decide their odds for the lottery to break a tie with the New Orleans Pelicans, but until the ping pong balls bounce, anything is up in the air.
The season from hell is over. I could not be more relieved, as watching my favourite team organically tank their way to oblivion was getting more and more frustrating with every game.
The Dallas Mavericks have a lot of needs that they need to address if they want to get back to the NBA Playoffs and bounce back from their disastrous 26-56 season.
The search for the next general manager or president of basketball operations of the Dallas Mavericks has begun. They terminated Nico Harrison in November, which was about nine months too late, and gave any available candidates clear notice that they were open for business.
The 2025-26 season was arguably the most disappointing season Dallas Mavericks fans have seen in a long time. They had talent, but it was either injured, traded away, or just not playing well because the fit of the whole roster was wonky.
The Dallas Mavericks didn't have the season they envisioned, going just 26-56 amid injuries and trading away Anthony Davis, which was a much-needed move.
The Dallas Mavericks will not be participating in the NBA Playoffs for the second year in a row. The final games of the Play-In Tournament will be tonight, but then, the playoffs start on Saturday.
The Dallas Mavericks have entered a retooling stage as they look to build the best team possible around Cooper Flagg. That makes this offseason imperative, as it's the last year that they have control over their first-round pick until 2031, so it could be the only good chance to pair Flagg with another young star.
Though his season may have ended early, Cooper Flagg still awaits the announcement of the NBA’s Rookie of the Year award. But while the decision on the honor is yet to be made, Flagg made an unexpected move.
The Dallas Mavericks knew they weren't going to get a great return on their investment in Anthony Davis when they started shopping him around. He was the primary return for Luka Doncic, a top 3 player in the NBA; there was never going to be another trade to match that kind of value.
The last time Kyrie Irving appeared on the basketball court for the Dallas Mavericks, the team looked drastically different with a roster built around him.
LeBron's career can't go on forever, can it? If it were to end tomorrow, it would be the greatest run of sustained excellence the league has ever seen.
The Dallas Mavericks are looking for a new President of Basketball Operations/General Manager after they fired Nico Harrison in November, which was about 9 months too late.
The season is already over for the Dallas Mavericks. They were eliminated from postseason contention weeks before their season-finale win over the Chicago Bulls on April 12th, which was the last we saw of star rookie Cooper Flagg.
The Dallas Mavericks have a lot of decisions to make on players this offseason, as they shift their focus to surrounding Cooper Flagg with talent that fits him.
To say the 2025-26 season was a disaster for the Dallas Mavericks would be a massive understatement. They thought they could make a deep postseason run with the star rookie Cooper Flagg flanked by Anthony Davis and Kyrie Irving, but that never ended up happening.
The Dallas Mavericks have an extremely important offseason ahead. They were in the NBA Finals two years ago but have now missed the playoffs in both of the years since.
The Dallas Mavericks are changing how they build their roster. This front office search comes from failure and urgency. Dallas is operating without a permanent head of basketball operations while the draft approaches, forcing ownership to accelerate a decision that will define the next phase of the franchise.
The Dallas Mavericks finished the season with a 26-56 record, but rookie Cooper Flagg looked every bit like a superstar. Flagg finished the season averaging 21 points with 6.7 rebounds and 4.5 assists while playing in 70 games.
Klay Thompson joined the Dallas Mavericks in 2024 in the hopes of winning his fifth NBA championship, but things haven’t quite gone according to plan. The Mavericks have failed even to make the playoffs in Thompson’s time there, finishing with a woeful 26-56 record in 2025-26.
Ryan Nembhard notched the second-most assists in a game in Dallas history as the Mavericks defeated the visiting Chicago Bulls 149-128 on Sunday. Nembhard fell narrowly short of a triple-double in the season-ending clash, chalking up 15 points, nine rebounds and 23 assists.
Patrick Dumont has experienced the extreme highs and lows of NBA ownership in his 27 months as governor of the Mavericks, from a trip to the NBA Finals to the drama surrounding former president Nico Harrison after his controversial decision to trade Luka Doncic.
Mavericks owner Patrick Dumont is hearing the same rumors as everyone else. He’s just not engaging with them. Amid speculation linking Dallas to high-profile executives such as the Thunder’s Sam Presti and Celtics’ Brad Stevens, Dumont made it clear those conversations aren’t happening.
The Dallas Mavericks could be taking a page out of the book of Brad Stevens and the Boston Celtics. Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd is “very interested”
The San Antonio Spurs will enter Wednesday night's game against the Portland Trail Blazers without two key players. Victor Wembanyama sat out after taking a rib contusion during Monday's contest, and Stephon Castle remained sidelined with soreness in his right knee.
Even during another loss for the Dallas Mavericks, rookie Cooper Flagg continued to make his debut season historic. The No. 1 overall pick from the 2025 NBA Draft put together a performance the league had never seen before.
