DETROIT — Every team in the Western Conference feels like it’s one significant move away from separating itself from the muck and being established as a power. Luka Doncic’s Dallas Mavericks illustrate that better than anyone, it seems. Monday, they seemed to validate their run to the conference finals in a Game 7-like beatdown of the hot Phoenix Suns. A few nights before, it was hard for them to muster the requisite energy to match a hungry Detroit Pistons team — falling in overtime… Source link

Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban has some thoughts on NBA’s reported in-season tournament. After a video circulated Friday where Cuban said he wasn’t a fan of the mid-season series and would even consider benching their best players, he later clarified and told The New York Times’ Mark Stein that those comments were “old” and that he was “actually open” to the idea. Here is the original video: The details of the proposed tournament are still being worked out, but the Athletic’s Shams Charania… Source link

Free agent center JaVale McGee has reached an agreement with the Dallas Mavericks on a three-year, $20 million deal, league sources told Yahoo Sports. The three-time NBA champion reportedly received interest from multiple teams after a standout season with the Phoenix Suns. McGee averaged 9.2 points, 6.7 rebounds and 1.1 blocks per game over 74 games and 17 starts last season. This is McGee’s second stint in Dallas. He played for the Mavericks in 2015-16 but was waived after the season. He… Source link

Free agent point guard Jalen Brunson is scheduled to meet with a few teams, headlined by the New York Knicks and Dallas Mavericks, on the first day of NBA free agency, league sources told Yahoo Sports. The free agency period begins Thursday at 6 p.m. ET. Brunson will hold free agent meetings in New York, sources said. The Mavericks will be given an opportunity to present an offer sweet enough to entice the four-year veteran into re-signing. Owner Mark Cuban, general manager Nico Harrison, head… Source link

Many people expected Golden State to take care of business in this series, but I don’t think anyone expected it to be this lopsided. The Warriors are looking for the sweep in this Game 4, and it’s becoming clear that the Mavs are outmatched right now. Luka Doncic is doing everything possible to carry this team, but it’s unfair when the other team has the next four-best players in the series. This is a spot for Dallas to bounce back, though, and they need to save some face… Source link

Through two games, the Dallas Mavericks looked outclassed by the Phoenix Suns. Two games later, the Western Conference semifinals are tied at 2-2 thanks to a 111-101 Mavericks win on Sunday, their second straight since the series shifted to Dallas. The Mavericks caught fire from 3-point distance and flustered Chris Paul, who played less than four minutes in the second half before fouling out early in the fourth quarter. Dallas secured the win despite a poor shooting effort from Luka Doncic… Source link

Though he is improving, Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic is reportedly “unlikely” to play in Game 2 of their opening-round playoff series against the Utah Jazz on Monday night. Doncic, who strained his calf in their regular season finale last week, has not been officially ruled out of the game. According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, however, he will need “dramatic” improvement in order to be cleared to play. “Yesterday was another good day, and today he’s back on the court, so… Source link

Rick Carlisle may be back in Indianapolis, but he’s made his pick to replace him in Dallas. Carlisle told ESPN on Thursday, shortly after he agreed to return to lead the Indiana Pacers on a four-year deal, that he thinks Mavericks owner Mark Cuban should hire Jason Kidd as the team’s next head coach. “My hope is that Jason Kidd will be the next coach of the Mavs because he and Luka have so many things in common as players,” Carlisle said, via ESPN. “I just think that it would be a great… Source link
