Klay Thompson will not return to Sunday’s game against OKC Thunder
The Dallas Mavericks took on the Oklahoma City Thunder Sunday night with a piece-meal roster.

MMBets Game of the Week: I-35 rivalry deserves better than this
The battle of Interstate 35 will add yet another chapter, as the West-leading Oklahoma City Thunder are in town to face off with the Dallas Mavericks.

Khris Middleton is expected to finish the season in Dallas
The NBA Trade Deadline has come and gone, but the Dallas Mavericks continue to make roster tweaks. Veteran point guard Tyus Jones was waived in a (potentially) mutually beneficial move. Jones is now free to hook up with a playoff team before Sunday’s deadline to do so while remaining playoff eligible. On the other hand, […]
3 notes as Dallas prepares to face Oklahoma City

Dallas Mavericks to convert Ryan Nembhard to standard deal
The Dallas Mavericks will convert point guard Ryan Nembhard’s two-way contract to a standard NBA deal, per Shams Charania.

Converting Nembhard to […]
Dallas Mavericks waiving Tyus Jones
The Dallas Mavericks are waiving veteran point guard Tyus Jones, per Marc Stein of The Stein Line. Stein reported late Friday that the team intended to waive Jones, a move that likely preceded converting Ryan Nembhard to a standard contract. Because the move happened prior to the March 1st deadline for playoff eligibility, Jones can […]
Yes, embrace the nihilism of the 2025-26 Dallas Mavericks basketball season
You are stirred from a nightmare just before sunrise to a nightmare of the waking variety, by the shrill of feedback from a blown-out loudspeaker positioned at the end of an otherwise silent city block. The desolate streetscape to which it commands its muffled announcements remains bombed out from a civil uprising that took place […]
Cooper Flagg’s path to Team USA in Olympics 2028 is clear
Houston Rockets forward and the most decorated male basketball player in Olympic history, Kevin Durant, grabbed headlines earlier this week when he stated he plans to play in the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. The four-time gold medalist recently spoke to ESPN, shutting down talk of no longer participating. “Hell yeah, I want to […]
Player Grades: Recapping the Mavericks Loss To The Memphis Grizzlies
Watching the Mavericks lose 124-105 to the Memphis Grizzlies felt like a test of mental strength, rather than something a normal person would do for fun.

Stats Rundown: 3 numbers to know from the Mavericks’ 124-105 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies
Commentary on the alleged basketball game that transpired on Friday between the Dallas Mavericks (21-38) and the Memphis Grizzlies (22-36) is not worth the bits and bytes it took to make the web page you’re reading appear on your screen.

NBA Lottery Watch: the Mavericks hold serve, key games on the way
Depending on your investment in the NBA Draft Lottery — which, you’re here on this page, so — we’ve entered a very tense time in the Dallas Mavericks’ season.

Stats Rundown: 6 numbers to know from the Mavericks’ 130-121 loss to the Sacramento Kings
When Precious Achiuwa, Maxime Raynaud and Dequon Plowden come to town, Katie bar the doors. You’re in for a tough one.

Both left with bruises, but Giannis Antetokounmpo later admitted that Khris Middleton was better
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 […]
The NBA award system is broken and they should scrap all structure
Cooper Flagg is currently the odds-on favorite to win Rookie of the Year. His Duke roommate, Kon Kneueppel, is behind him at around +220 (you bet $100, you win $220). Flagg is currently injured (and Dallas is tanking), and, as somewhat of a betting man myself, I wondered why I should not take the juice […]
