Arguably the best young player in the entire NBA, the 23-year-old Slovenian Mavericks Star Luka Doncic has been making positive comments many fans love to hear. During an exclusive interview with Marca in Paris, Doncic said: “I always want more, I want to win the ring, and hopefully, I will get it. Every season I start, my goal is to …
The Dallas Mavericks have finally answered the looming question mark at the center position. While the priority of re-signing Jalen Brunson remains high, GM Nico Harrison makes the early offseason move to acquire Houston Rockets from the Houston Rockets. Dallas shipped out Boban Marjanovic, Trey Burke, Marquese Chriss, Sterling Brown, and the 26th overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft. Dallas moved …
For the first time in GM Nico Harrison’s tenure, the Mavericks own their first round draft pick. Dallas, of course, sending their 2021 1st round pick (Keon Johnson later selected) and 2023 1st round draft pick in the deal to acquire Kristaps Porzingis in January of 2019. The question still remains whether Dallas opts to retain their pick, or to …
The Mavericks ended the year on a disappointing note, falling short of that elusive Larry O’Brien Trophy. This season, however, was a huge step in the right direction for this franchise. The 2021-22 season started off.. well, pretty rocky. At a 16-18 record, Coach Kidd became the scapegoat for a team that didn’t look ready to make a push for …
The Mavericks find themselves in all too familiar territory – down 0-1. Maybe it’s just the optimism that I admittedly have too much of at times. But to me, it seems like nobody is hitting the panic button quite yet. And nobody should hit the panic button. While the scoreboard of ‘112-87’ is quite the eyesore, it’s not like the …
The Mavs went into Game 4 looking to build off of their success in Game 3 of the series. Despite a strong defensive outing in Game 3, the national media would rather point to an uncharacteristic Suns performance. Dallas knew they had to protect their home court, because you can’t head back to Phoenix down 3-1. There were a few …
This Utah series has been filled with interesting story lines; most notably, Luka’s injury status and the exceptional play of Jalen Brunson as the number one option. Who would’ve imagined a bigger story line than the biggest Mavs fan there is, Rudy Gobert’s bee. Gobert posted a picture with a swollen face as a result of a bee sting. Apparently, Gobert …
There were a handful of question marks heading into Game 3 of this Utah Jazz series. No question mark, however, bigger than the potential return of Luka, who suffered a calf strain in the final regular season game vs. San Antonio. Despite plenty of optimism behind his injury status, Luka was ultimately ruled out of Game 3 hours prior to …
There’s no question that Maxi Kleber has been struggling offensively as of late. In the last five games, Kleber has shot a combined 3-19 from the three. But that’s not to say Kleber won’t be a steady offensive contributor come playoff time. What makes shooters great is the ability to step into every shot with the confidence, which Maxi continues …
After beating the Lakers on March 1, the Mavericks moved into fifth in the Western Conference — just two games behind Utah for fourth. Caesars Sportsbook has them listed at (+1800) to win the Western Conference. They are at (+900) to win the Southwest Division. Most savvy NBA observers have the Western Conference coming down to a battle between Phoenix …
