His IQ was described as beyond his years already back in high school. Khris Middleton, one of the new additions to the Dallas Mavericks roster in the Anthony Davis trade to the Washington Wizards, is not just any NBA veteran. Second star at his peak in Milwaukee, once fighting for the top spot with later […]
When the Dallas Mavericks traded Anthony Davis, they were mocked for the sheer lack of assets they acquired. Most expected that the trade would only amount to salary cap relief, but the Mavericks may have found something extra. That cherry on top, was Marvin Bagley. In his 6 games with the Dallas Mavericks, Bagley has […]

It has been nearly a full year since Kyrie Irving has played in an NBA game. With his shutdown for the remainder of the year now official, he will not play his next game until at least 19 months post-ACL surgery. That is a lot of time. 19 months ago, the Mavericks were fresh off […]

Another entry in what’s quietly become one of the strangest subplots of this Timberwolves season: the Frenchman vs. The Whistle. This time it happened under the basket against Dallas.
