The Dallas Mavericks (23-50) dropped their fifth game in a row, losing to the Denver Nuggets (44-28) on Wednesday, 142-135.

The Dallas Mavericks (23-50) dropped their fifth straight game Wednesday, falling 142-135 to the Denver Nuggets (45-28) in a game that felt within reach early before completely getting away from them late.

If you’re like me, and well, you’re on this page so you probably are, the NCAA tournament is a national holiday. It’s everything that is beautiful and ugly about college sports. Last weekends first rounds didn’t have the thrill of mid-majors dancing to the Sweet 16, but plenty of iconic finishes made for a fun […]

Cooper Flagg led the team in scoring with 22.3 points per game. Grade: C+ The Mavericks […]
What, really, is there to be gained for the Dallas Mavericks (23-49) as they prepare to face the Denver Nuggets (44-28) on Wednesday at Ball Arena? A draft lottery ball or two? A feint glimmer of sunshine in an otherwise dreary season and amidst a stretch of just four wins in the team’s last 27 […]

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 […]
The Dallas Mavericks lost 137-131 to the Golden State Warriors in an overtime thriller Monday night in Dallas.

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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
The Dallas Mavericks lost another game Saturday night, a 138-131 defeat in overtime to the Los Angeles Clippers. Dallas has lost 11 straight home games and sits at 23-48 on the season.

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 […]
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. […]
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 […]
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.

Dallas has been off for two days following a home loss to the Atlanta Hawks. The Clippers have slid under .500 after losing four straight, the most recent to the New Orleans Pelicans. They really need […]
While doing some wishcasting, I prompted our staff with this question: Dallas jumps up to number 1 in the NBA Lottery AGAIN. You’re the GM, based on what you know and think right now, what do you do with that pick? Bryan: I am opening up the bidding for the teams picking 2nd and 3rd. […]
