The Dallas Mavericks took on the Minnesota Timberwolves Friday night in their first game since the All-Star break on Friday. Losers of nine-straight coming into the night, Dallas dropped their tenth in a row, 122-111. Let’s get to the grades! Tyus Jones: B+ 13 PTS / 1 REB / 6 AST / 0 STL / […]
Game. Blouses. Not that it matters much, but the Dallas Mavericks (19-36) lost their 10th straight game and their first out of the NBA All-Star Break on Friday, 122-111, to the Minnesota Timberwolves (35-22) at Target Center. The Timberwolves donned their Prince-inspired City Edition jerseys and served pancakes (probably) in the visitors’ locker room after […]
The Dallas Mavericks (19-35) start off the post-NBA All-Star push on the road Friday night, this time matching up against the Minnesota Timberwolves (34-22). Dallas hasn’t won a game since January 22nd, so a win here would mean they can cut the streak at nine games and before it reaches a full month. Minnesota is […]
The Dallas Mavericks (19-35) will try to end their nine-game losing streak as they play the Minnesota Timberwolves (34-22) at Target Center. After a long and Mavs-less All-Star break, Dallas returns to action against the Minnesota Timberwolves. However, while the Mavericks are back, they will still be without rookie Cooper Flagg, who remains out with […]
The Dallas Mavericks are in the home stretch, fully in rebuild mode for the final 28 games of their season. For the last few years at MMB we’ve wrapped up each week with a quick glance at the Power Rankings among national outlets to see how they view the Mavericks from week to week. That, […]
The Mavericks are back in action after the All-Star break. They are in Minnesota, where they will play the Timberwolves without Cooper Flagg. The Wolves have dominated Dallas this season, winning each of their first two matchups by 24 and 13 points, respectively. Dallas is in active tank mode, and Minnesota is just a game […]
The Dallas Mavericks fully leaned into a new era for the organization this season after hearing the calls from MFFLs everywhere — first, by firing general manager Nico Harrison; and next, severing ties to the major connection to the Luka Doncic trade by moving Anthony Davis. The trade deadline reset the books for the future […]
The Dallas Mavericks (19-35) have sharply fallen out of the play-in race, seven games behind the 10th-place Los Angeles Clippers in the West. As Dallas enters the final third of the season, the Mavericks are looking to snap a nine-game losing streak. As play-in hopes continue to dwindle, the Mavericks will take a serious look […]
In the latest installment of Ethical Tanking Theater, the Dallas Mavericks (19-35) announced on Wednesday that Kyrie Irving would miss the remainder of the 2025-26 season as he continues to recover from his ACL reconstruction surgery, which he underwent in 2025. The team said in a press release that “Irving has made steady progress in […]
It’s an exciting time to watch college basketball! With the NBA out of the way for the majority of this week, there is plenty of time to get eyes on some of the best prospects in the country who will be playing in big games. There’s so much to get into from the week that […]
Mikel Brown Jr. had become somewhat of a polarizing NBA Draft prospect throughout the 2025-26 college basketball season. Regarded as an elite shooter prior to his arrival at Louisville, Brown Jr. had been anything but that. Prior to last week, Brown Jr. was hovering at around 30% from three point range, while shooting under 40% […]
The Dallas Mavericks are currently in the midst of their longest losing streak since before the calendar turned over to a new century. Having dropped nine straight games entering the All-Star break, Dallas is currently much better positioned for a high draft pick than they are for a Play In bid, and it’s becoming increasingly […]
With tNBA’s Trade Deadline come and gone and the Dallas Mavericks making a transaction, it was time to take a poll to see what Dallas fans thought of the crazy few days for the Mavericks. I went into the gym on Thursday and came out to a blown up phone with so many texts, tweets, […]
The Dallas Mavericks, now post trade deadline and resting over the all-star break, are fully in a new era. Yes, parts of the Luka Doncic core remain. But the Anthony Davis deadline deal that sent the big man and the end of the bench to the Washington Wizards made clear that the front office is […]
To no one’s surprise, Cooper Flagg was officially named a “Rising Star” by the NBA and was tapped to compete in the “Rising Stars Challenge” during the 2026 All-Star Weekend in Los Angeles before suffering a foot injury in Tuesday’s 120-111 loss at the Phoenix Suns. It got us thinking: What other Mavericks have been […]
At the intersection of futility and ethical tanking, there you’ll find the 2025-26 Dallas Mavericks (19-35). The Mavericks dropped their ninth straight loss on Thursday, this time to the Los Angeles Lakers (33-21) at Crypto.com Arena, 124-104. Dallas’ nine-game losing streak is now the franchise’s longest since the Mavs dropped 14 straight in the 1998-99 […]
The Dallas Mavericks took on the Los Angeles Lakers in their last game before breaking for All-Star weekend. Both teams were missing star players (Cooper Flagg and Luka Doncic), but it was the Lakers who served up the Mavs a 124-104 loss. Let’s get to the grades! Brandon Williams: B+ 17 PTS / 5 REB […]
The Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Dallas Mavericks 124-104 on Thursday at Crypto.com Arena behind a vintage effort from LeBron James. It was the Mavs’ final game before the All-Star break, and they didn’t exactly go out with a bang. The game in LA was lacking a certain amount of star power with both Cooper […]
The Dallas Mavericks (19-34) head further West, this time to play the Los Angeles Lakers (32-21). The Mavericks have lost eight in a row, a streak that started by a loss to these Los Angeles Lakers a few weeks back. Dallas fell most recently to the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday night. Los Angeles is looking […]

Back in December, after a particular tough loss to the Brooklyn Nets, the Washington Wizards players had an impromptu meeting in the locker room. One player who spoke up was backup center Marvin Bagley III. He averaged 16 minutes a game at the time, but felt he had something important to share, especially to the […]
The Dallas Mavericks continued their road trip against the Phoenix Suns with hopes of ending their season-high seven-game losing streak. Instead, their skid stretched to eight games after a 120-111 loss that was nowhere near as close as the score would indicate. Let’s get to the grades! Tyus Jones: C 2 PTS / 2 REB […]
The Mavericks lost a long, dreadful game in Phoenix tonight to their old rival, the Suns. Naji Marshall led the way for Dallas with 31 points, with rookie Cooper Flagg tagging along with 27 to try to push the Mavs back from an early 31-point deficit. Newly acquired Khris Middleton also put in 13 points […]

Naji Marshall scored 11 of his team-high 31 points in the fourth quarter in the fakest comeback attempt the NBA […]
