The Dallas Mavericks have been playing their best basketball of the season of late, though they did fall short in a 140-133 OT loss to the Jazz Monday night. In what was a fun high octane game even though Dallas couldn’t pull off the win, Cooper Flagg left Mavs’ fans with a silver lining with […]

Are the Dallas Mavericks (10-16) in their ascendancy as we inch closer to the potential return of star guard Kyrie Irving, who remains out as he recovers from offseason knee surgery?

The Dallas Mavericks have put together a nice run over the past two weeks, winning five of their last six games.

[…]

The Dallas Mavericks (9-16) host the Brooklyn Nets (6-17) following a long break due to the NBA Cup.

What these two could accomplish together, if – again theoretically – they were put in their natural positions and managed […]
Trades are coming to the Dallas Mavericks. Pick at least one player you expect to get traded and one player you think should stay in a Mavericks uniform by the trade deadline. Jack: One player that I expect to get traded is Klay Thompson. While he started the season poorly, he’s been much better as […]
It appears the 2025-26 basketball season is over after just seven games for third-year Dallas Mavericks’ center Dereck Lively II. ESPN’s Shams Charania reported late Wednesday morning that Lively will undergo a season-ending procedure on his right foot “to address lingering discomfort.” The phrase “lingering discomfort” is an apt one, not just for the sensation […]
