THE COLONY – Eric Hunt and his two boys were seated in the domed area of Cosm, which can best be described as a sports bar on steroids. With almost beyond-belief technology, the huge semicircle had the Mavericks’ game at Indiana showing on Wednesday and if you didn’t know better, you’d have thought you were […]

INDIANAPOLIS – For seemingly the umpteenth time in this heartbreaker of a season, the basketball gods appear to have turned their backs on the Dallas Mavericks once again. Ahead by seven points with under a minute remaining in Wednesday’s game against the Indiana Pacers, the Mavs appeared to hold the keys to victory snugly in […]

 INDIANAPOLIS – From Kai Jones’ vantage point, the Dallas Mavericks having to play games with just eight players is not really a bad thing. At least not for him. “I’m not going to lie, it’s fun because you know you’re going to play a lot, so I love it,” Jones said. “It’s like a dream. […]

The last time the Mavericks and Detroit Pistons matched up, it was Jan. 31 and the only memorable thing was in the postgame locker room when Markieff Morris sat alone in the corner stall. Nobody knew it at the time, but there was a reason why some players and coaches, in particular assistant Darrell Armstrong, […]

The Dallas Mavericks celebrated five young artists last weekend who were chosen as the team’s 2025 Black History Month Art Contest winners. With a record number of entries for this year’s art competition, the winning group showcased their immense creativity, crafting submissions that blew away the selection committee. The five winners— Christian Anderson, Ilhana Davis, […]

INDIANAPOLIS – Indiana Pacers coach Rick Carlisle was making such a fuss over Naji Marshall on Wednesday night that he probably wound up being the president of the Dallas Mavericks forward’s fan club. Prior to the game against the Mavs, Carlisle went on and on about how impressed he is with Marshall and what he’s […]

INDIANAPOLIS – Dallas Mavericks forward Anthony Davis and guard Jaden Hardy were assigned to the G League on Monday so they could get some work in with the Texas Legends. Then, the Mavs recalled them later in the day. Both Davis and Hardy were able to play five-on-five scrimmages with the Legends. That’s often a […]

As Maverick fans wait for the return of Anthony Davis, the centerpiece of the blockbuster trade last month, the growth of Max Christie has been an interesting subplot. The 6-6 guard left a magnificent first impression when he came out firing (and making) shots in his first couple of weeks as a Maverick. Then, he […]

It most certainly was good to have P.J. Washington back on the floor for the Mavericks on Sunday afternoon. What wasn’t so great was having Quentin Grimes back in American Airlines Center. The former Maverick who was dealt to Philadelphia before the trade deadline, had 28 points to lead a determined, but understaffed, bunch of […]

As bad as things have been in the injury department for the Mavericks this season, they’ve been worse for the Philadelphia 76ers. Once possessing the same amount of optimism that the Mavericks started this season with, the Sixers are playing out the string and actually have a reason not to win games: they keep their […]

Five months ago, the NBA season was about to begin and the two teams that will have a high-noon shootout Sunday at American Airlines Center were brimming with confidence. The Philadelphia 76ers had just made a splashy offseason move to get Paul George and were ever-hopeful that the superstar grouping of George, Joel Embiid and […]

HOUSTON – As the few Dallas Mavericks players who are able to play make their way onto the court on a nightly basis, they can always look to the bench and see a lot of support coming from their teammates. And that especially includes the teammates who are unable to play due to various injuries. […]

HOUSTON – Some 23 years ago, Philadelphia 76ers guard Allen Iverson famously quipped “you’re talking about practice, not a game” after he skipped a practice session during his team’s trip to Miami. Fast forward to today, the Dallas Mavericks are crossing their fingers for the day they have enough players to have a practice session. […]

HOUSTON – For some unexplained reason, a dark cloud of injuries continues to hang over the Dallas Mavericks.  Mavs guard Dante Exum fractured his left hand and left Friday’s game against Houston for good midway through the second quarter of the 133-96 loss to the Rockets. That injury, combined with the other eight Mavs players […]

The crowd filling the American Airlines Center on Monday morning was slightly different than the fans typically packed into the arena for a Mavs game. This bunch featured nearly 1,000 young women from middle and high schools across the Metroplex excited to experience the Mavs’ 4th Annual GEM Celebration. Launched by the Mavericks in 2021, […]

HOUSTON – After missing this past Monday’s game against San Antonio with left hamstring soreness, Brandon Williams actually didn’t know what to expect when he played in this past Wednesday’s game against the Spurs. But the Dallas Mavericks’ guard fared very well as he wound up leading the Mavs in scoring with 19 points, and […]

SAN ANTONIO – The Mavericks split two games on the San Antonio Spurs’ home court, and left the Alamo City with a defiant feeling. Even with half the roster injured, they are keeping the faith, which isn’t easy. Or is it? “It’s not hard,” said Dante Exum. “We know how good we can be if […]

SAN ANTONIO – If you’d have told the Mavericks beforehand that they’d shoot 55 percent, including nearly 41 percent from three-point land, they certainly would have taken their chances against San Antonio Wednesday night. Unfortunately, in a defensive pillow fight, the Mavericks could not turn offensive efficiency into a victory. The Spurs got a huge […]

This year’s MBA Pitch Competition gathered the 100 entrepreneurs in the 2024-25 cohort at The Factory in Deep Ellum alongside family and friends […]

SAN ANTONIO – If you’re looking for the best bargain on the Mavericks’ roster this season, look no further than Kessler Edwards. The man has paid for his modest, two-way contract many times over. The 6-8 Edwards is earning $578,577 on his two-way deal. It allows him to be active for a maximum of 50 […]
