Which players should the Dallas Wings protect in upcoming WNBA expansion draft?

The WNBA and WNBPA have reportedly agreed to a collective bargaining agreement after nearly 100 hours of crunch-time negotiations. The agreement guarantees larger salaries, a share of the league’s revenue share for its players, and finally ends the negotiations that threatened to cripple the league if not finalized before the start of the season. With […]

Stats Rundown: 3 numbers from the Mavericks overtime loss to the Warriors

The Dallas Mavericks lost 137-131 to the Golden State Warriors in an overtime thriller Monday night in Dallas. Cooper Flagg led all scorers with 32 points but a balanced Warriors attack and sloppy Mavericks miscues prevented the Mavericks from a feel-good win. Dallas nearly blew the game open in the second quarter, outscoring Golden State […]

3 thoughts after Dallas can’t overcome the Warriors, 137-131

The Dallas Mavericks lost again at home in overtime, this time to the Golden State Warriors on Monday night, 137-131. Moses Moody led the Warriors with 23 points. Cooper Flagg scored a game high 32 points but also turned the ball over seven times. Fans in the American Airlines Center were treated to a display […]

MMBets: the depleted Warriors meet the spiraling Mavericks

The Mavericks are home for a game against their 2022 Western Conference Finals opponents, the Golden State Warriors. Golden State has been ravaged by injuries this season and find themselves fighting for the eighth spot in the playoffs. Both teams own a three-game losing streak, but both have different incentives behind winning and losing. The […]

NBA Lottery Watch: March Madness for the Mavericks

Don’t tell anyone we told you, but you’d be forgiven if you missed some Dallas Mavericks games lately with March Madness seeping through the public consciousness for the last 96 hours. But both worlds work hand-in-hand, as the Mavericks navigate lottery positioning while the NBA season comes to a close. And while positioning (losing) doesn’t […]

MMB Lounge: NCAA Tournament, finishing up the NBA season

It’s past time for a new lounge thread, so here we are. Here’s the old one to carry over any conversations and grievances. The schedule is a mixed bag. For basketball fans, it’s great. There’s the NCAA Tournament, the race for playoff seeding, and more. If you’re strictly a diehard Mavs fan (and perhaps one […]

Mavericks vs. Warriors: 3 things before Dallas hosts a shorthanded Golden State

The Dallas Mavericks (23-48, 14-22 Home) took the Los Angeles Clippers to overtime on Saturday before falling 138-131 in a game that had no business being that close and (if you were watching) every reason to be exactly that close. These Mavericks don’t fold. They don’t mail it in. They play hard enough to make you […]

SB Reacts: All eyes on the NCAA Tournament

Though the NBA season is rolling on, a good chunk of the basketball world puts it on the back burner every March to pay attention to the NCAA Tournament. And there are plenty of bets to be made for both leagues if that’s your thing. This week at Mavs Moneyball, I kept the survey simple. […]

Finding meaning in this Dallas Mavericks season

What’s the point of all this? Not just the last 12 games of this Dallas Mavericks season. They’re probably going to lose a lot of those games, so you’re not watching for the thrill of victory. A lot of the players on the team right now will likely be gone after this summer, so you’re […]

Stats Rundown: 3 numbers from the Mavericks loss to the Clippers

The Dallas Mavericks continue to lose, this time in a 138-131 overtime thriller to the Los Angeles Clippers. Darius Garland had a savant performance, pouring in 41 points and 11 assists. Kawhi Leonard also had a great performance, scoring 34 points on just 22 shots. The Mavericks almost pulled off the upset, but were eventually […]

MMBets: The Los Angeles Clippers visit the Dallas Mavericks

It’s late March, the last of my Salted Brown Butter Cookie Häagen-Dazs is gone, and the Dallas Mavericks (23-47) are hosting the Los Angeles Clippers (34-36) in a game that actually matters—just not the same way for both teams. The Clippers are sitting squarely in the play-in and have dropped back-to-back games to the Pelicans […]

4 Draft Prospects with the Most to Prove in the East Region of March Madness

The East Bracket of the 2026 NCAA Tournament might be the most-watched by NBA scouts, not because of the names you already know, like Cam Boozer, Darrien Peterson, Mikel Brown Jr., and Braylon Mullins, but because of the names you might not: Donovan Dent, Jeremy Fears, Dominique Daniels, Zuby Ejiofor, and David Punch. If you’re […]

WNBA, WNBPA reach agreement on new collective bargaining agreement

After nearly 17 months of negotiations, the WNBA and WNBA Players Association came to a tentative verbal deal on terms for a new collective bargaining agreement. Annie Costabile of Front Office Sports broke the news early Monday morning from the Langham Hotel in New York City, where marathon bargaining sessions between the two parties had […]

Player Grades – Recapping the Mavericks vs. the Hawks

The Dallas Mavericks have been in some familiar matchups over the past few weeks, with the Atlanta Hawks the latest to run it back just eight days after the last time the two teams faced off. Similar to a week ago, the Hawks got a win in a 135-120 decision Wednesday night. Let’s get to […]

Stats Rundown: 3 numbers from the Mavericks loss to the Hawks

The Dallas Mavericks got blown out again, this time a 135-120 loss to the Atlanta Hawks Wednesday night in Dallas. CJ McCollum led the Hawks with 24 points, while Jalen Johnson almost had a triple double with 17 points, 11 rebounds, and nine assists. Daniel Gafford came off the bench to lead Dallas in scoring […]

2 things after Dallas takes a loss against Atlanta, 135-120

The Atlanta Hawks defeated the Dallas Mavericks 135-to-120. This game started on the wrong foot, and the Mavericks never quite found their level. If you blinked (or spent the first couple of minutes looking at your phone), you might’ve missed the Hawks starting the game by opening up a 10-to-0 lead within the game’s first […]
