CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Before playing against the Dallas Mavericks on Monday afternoon for the first time in his NBA career, Josh Green reflected on how much fun he had playing for the Mavs over the previous four seasons. “It was amazing to play for the Mavericks,” Green told Mavs.com. “It’s the first place I kind […]

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Center Daniel Gafford produced one of those games every NBA player dreams of. Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to prevent the Dallas Mavericks from suffering a 110-105 loss to the Charlotte Hornets on Monday afternoon at Spectrum Center. Gafford scored a career-high 31 points, grabbed a game-high 15 rebounds, handed out three assists, […]

The teams that met in the Western Conference finals last season are limping through the middle of the season more disappointed than a teenager without TikTok for a weekend. But just like the social media time-waster came back, both the Mavericks and the Minnesota Timberwolves expect to push these lagging times behind them, preferably sooner […]

CHARLOTTE, N. C. – From a competitive and pride standpoint, the Dallas Mavericks won’t fully admit that their plethora of injuries have compromised their ability to win games on a consistent basis. Their DNA won’t allow for such a confession. But the proof is in the pudding. The Mavs were without Luka Dončić (left calf […]

Club Mavericks Members filed into the lower bowl at American Airlines Center last Monday, Jan. 13, not for a scheduled game but a night full of games, nonetheless. The entire Mavericks roster, DJ Shippy, and MavsTV’s Mark Followill and Jeff “Skin” Wade teamed up on an off day to host an evening of entertainment for […]

CHARLOTTE, N.C. – Following Tuesday’s loss to the Denver Nuggets, Kyrie Irving’s exuberance probably got the best of him. Not long after that game, the Dallas Mavericks’ guard talked about his excitement to be playing the next night in New Orleans against the Pelicans. But there was only one problem. “I was speaking from an […]

As far as his pro basketball career is concern, Theo Pinson has decided to  put a big bow on it and wrap it tight. Basketball is in his rearview mirror, so the former Dallas Maverick has transitioned into a career as a TV color analyst for ESPN. He also has a pair of podcasts — […]

The Oklahoma City Thunder are a lot like the Mavericks. Take away their MVP candidate and they’re still capable of winning any game. But like the Mavericks without Luka Dončić, the Thunder without Shai Gilgeous-Alexander aren’t the same beast. In a way, the Mavericks’ 106-98 victory on Friday night at American Airlines Center was poetic […]

The next time the Dallas Mavericks step on the basketball court, they’ll play on the road on Monday against the Charlotte Hornets. And that game will be played on the day America celebrates Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and all of the historic things he accomplished for this country. It’s a game Mavs guard Klay […]

Maybe you’ve heard this one before. An NBA team is missing its superstar and can’t completely figure out how to cope, losing to a team they were expected to defeat handily. Yep, it happened to the Oklahoma City Thunder Friday night at American Airlines Center. They played for the first time this season without high-scoring […]

Halfway through the regular season and hopefully much further than that through a really difficult stretch, the Mavericks are getting nothing handed to them these days. They have lost three in a row and eight of 10 and not only haven’t been able to find much success during Luka Dončić’s time out with a left […]

NEW ORLEANS – The first half of the 2024-25 NBA season ended with a thud for the Dallas Mavericks. A thud in a sense that in the NBA’s Last Two Minute Report which was released Thursday, the league admitted that goaltending should have been whistled against New Orleans forward Trey Murphy III when he “blocked” […]

NEW ORLEANS — While Naji Marshall has been a big plus for the Dallas Mavericks, the New Orleans Pelicans truly miss the fifth-year forward. Marshall went undrafted out of Xavier University in 2020, but was soon signed by the Pelicans and played for New Orleans until he inked a three-year, $27 million contract with the […]

NEW ORLEANS – For the Dallas Mavericks, it was an unbelievable and unforgettable finish on Wednesday night to a game at Smoothie King Center they obviously believe they should have won. One minute the Mavs thought they scored a go-ahead bucket, which could have propelled them to a victory, and the next minute they found […]

The Mavericks have reached the point that they have to hope and pray that this is not “one of those years,” with regard to their injury situation. They have had all of the players expected in the preseason to be in the rotation available for zero games this season. And usually, it’s been more than […]

NEW ORLEANS – One of the things Dallas Mavericks coach Jason Kidd doesn’t want his team to do is to go into games relying heavily on their superstar backcourt of Luka Dončić and Kyrie Irving to be the ones who consistently guide them to a victory. Kidd believes some of that thought process may have […]

The Mavericks, like every other team in the NBA, tried to serve up a buffet of defenses against Denver center and three-time MVP Nikola Jokic. And, actually, unlike Sunday, they had some measure of effectiveness on Tuesday when Jokic had 10 points, 10 assists and 14 rebounds. But that just shows how good he is […]

Kyrie Irving returned to action and that was the beginning and the end of the good news for the Mavericks on Tuesday night. The Denver Nuggets ruined the superstar guard’s comeback after missing five games with what Irving said was a bulging disc in his back. Jamal Murray dumped 45 points on the Mavericks and […]

Kyrie Irving is on the lip of the cup to return to game action and the Mavericks are ready for one of their leaders to come back. In more ways than one. With a rematch against Denver looming Tuesday night (8:30 p.m. tip), the Mavericks obviously are ready to add Irving’s services on the court. […]

The Dallas Mavericks celebrated a historic milestone on Sunday, Jan. 12, as Mavs ManiAAC Rob Maiden, also known as Big Rob, performed in his 1,000th regular season game! To commemorate the accomplishment that was 20-plus years in the making, the Dallas Mavericks shocked Big Rob with a special presentation ahead of the second quarter. The […]
