Mavericks fans might feel great about seeing him in a Wizards uniform instead of a Mavericks jersey. But the truth is that we never got to see how good Porzingis might have been […]

It’s the look of a proud little brother who has countless fond memories of his sister who loved to attend church and especially adored their grandmother. Growing up, Henderson was Bullock’s brother and […]
There’s a little-known fact about Davis Bertans. Half of his ring finger on his (right) shooting hand is missing. The accident happened when Bertans was just 13 years old. And he said it’s a miracle that he was able to make it all the way to the NBA, where he is in his first season […]

What a wild week it’s been for the Dallas Mavericks. When they woke up this past Sunday morning, the Mavs were the Western Conference’s No. 5 seed and trying to do whatever they could to get to the No. 4 seed, which guarantees them homecourt advantage in the first round of the playoffs.

When the Dallas Mavericks went to bed Wednesday night, not only did they do so knowing they had clinched a playoff berth for the third straight season, they also knew they had climbed into the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference. In other words, Wednesday turned out to be a terrific night for the […]
You kind of get the feeling that Brandon Knight was signed to a 10-day contract by the Mavericks just in time to fill in for Spencer Dinwiddie on Wednesday night. The Mavericks knew Dinwiddie would not be available at Cleveland. The guard has not played both ends of a back-to-back situation all season after having […]
The Mavericks can’t help it that LeBron James didn’t play against them Tuesday night. It probably disappointed some fans – and there were lots of Los Angeles Lakers’ jerseys in the crowd – and it certainly wasn’t good news for TNT on their national telecast. But the Mavericks didn’t care. They did what they needed […]

Dallas Mavericks coach Jason Kidd was asked when LeBron James becomes the NBA’s all-time leading scorer next season, does that mean he’ll also become the greatest player of all-time? Or will that title still belong to Michael Jordan? “I think LeBron will go down as the greatest to do it,” Kidd said. “When you look […]
As they continue to turn American Airlines Center into a chamber of horrors for opponents, the Mavericks have reached the point where things that seemed impossible as recently as last week now are very realistic. Third place in the Western Conference, anybody? At this point, anything’s possible. Especially the way Luka Dončić is powering the […]
As Dallas Mavericks Jalen Brunson and Tim Hardaway Jr. held the ladder, two youngsters snipped the basketball net and claps rang out as the Dallas Mavericks unveiled the NBA’s 75th Anniversary Court at For Oak Cliff Monday afternoon. “I am so excited about what we are doing today,” said Mavs CEO Cynt Marshall. “This is […]
Dorian Finney-Smith joined the NBA in 2016 as an undrafted free agent with a penchant for being a pit bull on defense. Since then, he’s also become a nifty catch-and-shoot three-point specialist. Now, the Dallas Mavericks are asking Finney-Smith to put the ball on the floor and initiate the offense. It’s a challenge coach Jason […]

Regardless of what anybody says, they got LeBron on the court, so they definitely got […]
Now that they’ve finally grabbed sole possession of the No. 4 seed in the Western Conference, the Dallas Mavericks are in a why-stop-there mode.

With all eyes on this high-stakes battle for sole possession of the Western Conference’s No. 4-seed, the Mavs rolled out the red carpet […]
If this was a playoff preview, it was like watching the trailer for a movie with most of the villains edited out. The Utah Jazz were missing two starters – center Rudy Gobert and shooting guard Bojan Bogdanovic – plus backup big man Hassan Whiteside for Sunday’s visit to American Airlines Center. It certainly took […]
