Ben Simmons was the last Sixer to win Rookie of the Year back in 2017-18. Cooper Flagg, Kon Knueppel and Derik Queen are the favorites to win the award in 2025-26. Flagg, a no-doubter No. 1 overall pick, is picking it up after a tough start to the year with the 10-17 Dallas Mavericks. He […]
The Mavericks face the Pistons Thursday night for the second time this season, but the first time on U.S. soil. The home game for the Mavericks will be their third in the last four games, where they have won the other two. The Pistons have the best record in the East coming in, while the […]
With the NBA Cup out of the way, we are now back to our regularly scheduled programming of Dallas Mavericks basketball.

Awaiting the Mavericks […]
The Dallas Mavericks have been playing their best basketball of the season of late, though they did fall short in a 140-133 OT loss to the Jazz Monday night. In what was a fun high octane game even though Dallas couldn’t pull off the win, Cooper Flagg left Mavs’ fans with a silver lining with […]
They say giving is the best part of Christmas and it seems that Luka Dončić agrees with that sentiment. Luka has shown his generous side multiple times already during his 11 months as a Laker. Last year, he donated $500,000 to LA wildfire relief and for his first game against the Mavericks in LA, he bought […]
The Mavericks were 1-1 this past week and now sit in 10th place in the West. They beat Brooklyn (119-111) at home on Friday before going to Utah and losing a heartbreaker to the Jazz (140-133). Cooper Flagg led the team in scoring during these two games with 32 points per game. Daniel Gafford (ankle) […]
The Dallas Mavericks locked up with the Utah Jazz in a high-scoring affair Monday night. Going without Anthony Davis, Dallas welcomed back Daniel Gafford for a bit of help down low. The Mavs unfortunately came unraveled in the final minutes of regulation, losing 140-133 in overtime. Let’s get to the grades! Ryan Nembhard: B+ 14 […]
Cooper Flagg, as most Duke fans probably know, got off to a bit of a slow start as an NBA rookie. The Mavericks started him off at point guard and while he did okay there, it was asking a lot of an 18-year-0ld rookie and people started to say he was overrated. They’re not saying […]
The Dallas Mavericks dropped a heartbreaker in overtime against the Utah Jazz, losing 140-133 Monday night in Salt Lake City. Dallas drops out of the play-in for the moment, falling to 12th place in the Western Conference. It was a very entertaining back-and-forth affair, resembling those classic Mavericks shootouts from the early 2000s with Dirk […]
The Utah Jazz have a star in Keyonte George. In a close one against the Dallas Mavericks that went to Overtime, Keyonte George led the Utah Jazz to victory over the Cooper Flagg-led Mavericks, 140-133. Cooper Flagg will get the accolades for his 42-point outburst, but at the end of quarters, he really struggled and […]
The Utah Jazz came back to defeat the Dallas Mavericks in overtime, 140-133. The Mavericks got things started quickly, to the tune of a season-high 43-point first quarter, powered by an impressive 14-point outpouring from Cooper Flagg, whose shooting touch and ability to finish around the rim are improving at a blistering pace. Dallas, despite […]
The Dallas Mavericks (10-16) face off against the Utah Jazz (9-15) on Monday night. It’s one of the many road games Dallas has to close out the calendar year 2025. Dallas won their first game out of the weird mini-break, defeating the Brooklyn Nets on Friday. Utah held off the Memphis Grizzlies in a high […]

Following a charismatic 130-126 win in Memphis, the Jazz (9-15) return home to take on the Mavericks (10-16) on a Monday night. Let’s rip the band-aid off all at once, shall we? A loss tonight creates some marginal separation in the Tankathon standings between the Jazz and Blazers, whilst also inching closer to the Hornets’ […]
The Houston Rockets got absolutely hosed by the NBA Cup makeup game schedule. Or at least, they didn’t make out like gangbusters like the Dallas Mavericks did. The Rockets got the Clippers (who, when their old bodies are given several days off, play much better than normal) and the Denver Nuggets (who are just awesome […]
Are the Dallas Mavericks (10-16) in their ascendancy as we inch closer to the potential return of star guard Kyrie Irving, who remains out as he recovers from offseason knee surgery? How high, exactly, is the ceiling for a team that makes things hard on both themselves at times with turnovers and offensive inefficiency, as […]
A good showing but not enough to bring it home. The Brooklyn Nets went to Texas for a showdown with the Dallas Mavericks. Brooklyn had a chance to win late, but the Mavs did just enough to hand the Nets a tough loss. The opponent tonight is trying to hang on. The season hasn’t gone […]
The Dallas Mavericks have put together a nice run over the past two weeks, winning five of their last six games. While a few of those games were against sub-par teams, the Mavs got wins over the second and third best teams in the Western Conference (the Denver Nuggets and Houston Rockets, respectively) as well. […]
Portland Trail Blazers fans (and journalists) who are fans of getting to bed earlier can rejoice this month. NBC announced Saturday it is switching the start times for its NBA doubleheaders to 5 and 7:30 p.m. PT for the rest of December. That means the Blazers game against the Dallas Mavericks on Monday, Dec. 29, […]
The Dallas Mavericks returned from a five-day layoff on Friday to welcome the Brooklyn Nets to the American Airlines Center. Dallas continued their solid play and got themselves a 119-111 win, their fifth in the team’s last six games. Let’s get to the grades! Ryan Nembhard: D 0 PTS / 2 REB / 5 AST […]
Winning matters, but so does learning how not to lose. For a young Nets team still figuring out how to close games, Friday’s 119-111 loss to the Dallas Mavericks felt familiar. The flashes, however, continue to feel real. “I liked their fight all the way through,” said Jordi Fernandez. “I think the team competed well.” […]
The Dallas Mavericks defeated the Brooklyn Nets 119-111 Friday night in Dallas. The win is the Mavericks’ fifth in the last six games and is a great way to get back into action after five days off.

Cooper Flagg also had 22 points, five rebounds and a career high of eight assists. Max […]
It’s been a full six days since the Nets last played basketball. For those who forgot where we left off: Brooklyn’s won three out of four entering tonight. Egor Demin enjoyed a night out for the Jimmy V Classic at MSG, watching his BYU Cougars pull off a thrilling buzzer beater victory off the hands […]
The Dallas Mavericks (9-16) host the Brooklyn Nets (6-17) following a long break due to the NBA Cup. Neither team made it out of group play, so they got to rest and then play one another… which isn’t the worst outcome! Dallas last beat the Houston Rockets while the Nets beat the New Orleans Pelicans […]
