Rick Carlisle approved.
The Mavericks were 1-4 over the last week and remain in 12th place in the West. They beat Brooklyn (123-114), and lost four largely uncompetitive games to Sacramento (130-121), Memphis (124-105), Oklahoma City (100-87), and Charlotte (117-90). Naji Marshall led the team in scoring with 20.3 points per game. Cooper Flagg (foot) remains out, while […]
The Dallas Mavericks, still without Cooper Flagg, started their longest road trip in 15 years, taking on the Charlotte Hornets. The six-game trip got off on the wrong foot with a 117-90 loss. Let’s get to the grades! Brandon Williams: B+ 18 PTS / 4 REB / 1 AST / 0 STL / 1 BLK […]
The Dallas Mavericks were beaten by the Charlotte Hornets, 117-90 in a game that fell well short of competitive. Dallas, still short-handed and without Cooper Flagg, was dispatched with ease by the NBA’s hottest team. With the win, the Hornetts are back to .500 and looking towards the postseason for the first time in a […]
The Dallas Mavericks (21-40) had nothing for the Charlotte Hornets (31-31) on Tuesday at the Spectrum Center, leaving town with a big 117-90 “L” bulging out of their pocket. The Hornets have now won 15 of their last 18 games, while the Mavericks (sigh) have lost 14 of their last 16. Brandon Miller scored 13 […]
The Dallas Mavericks (21-39) head out on the road for a long time, and they start the trip Tuesday night with a visit against the Charlotte Hornets (30-31). Dallas is on a three-game skid, having lost all three of their games in their most recent homestand. The Hornets have won four straight, most recently against […]
The Dallas Mavericks (21-39) travel to Charlotte to take on the Hornets (30-31), hoping to snap a three-game losing streak. It’ll be hard to imagine getting a better game than the last Mavericks-Hornets matchup, even though Charlotte walked away with the win, 123-121. The injury report is longer for the Mavs this time around, and […]

Welcome to March! I hope you left milk and cookies out for Santa Rothstein on Saturday, because it is officially the best month this sport has to offer. This is the final week of regular season basketball in the power conferences, with many of the smaller conferences beginning their conference tournaments this week. There is […]
The Dallas Mavericks have been busy with roster adjustments this week. Tyus Jones was waived, Ryan Nembhard was converted from a two-way contract to a standard contract, and Khris Middleton will officially be sticking around. The Mavs weren’t done there. As reported by Mark Followill and others, three other players will be part of a […]
The Dallas Mavericks started the month of March hosting the Oklahoma City Thunder. Still without Cooper Flagg as they closed out their homestand, Dallas fell 100-87 to the league’s best team. Let’s get to the grades! Brandon Williams: B 14 PTS / 3 REB / 3 AST / 0 STL / 0 BLK – 24 […]
The Dallas Mavericks (21-39) dropped their third straight game and their 13th in the last 15, 100-87, to the Oklahoma City Thunder (47-15) on Sunday at American Airlines Center. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander did what Shai Gilgeous-Alexander does, scoring a game-high 30 points in 33 minutes on 12-of-20 shooting for the Thunder, while Caleb Martin led the […]
The Dallas Mavericks fell to the Oklahoma City Thunder, 100–87, in a game where shot-making and efficiency ultimately separated the two teams. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander led the way for OKC with 30 points on 12-for-20 shooting, while Chet Holmgren added 19 points and nine rebounds as the Thunder shot 44.6 percent from the field and controlled […]
The Dallas Mavericks took on the Oklahoma City Thunder Sunday night with a piece-meal roster. P.J Washington, Marvin Bagley III and Naji Marshall were three key rotation players out for the game, and after 15 minutes of action, Klay Thompson unfortunately joined them. Shortly after Thompson checked out, the announce team said he would be […]
The Dallas Mavericks (21-38) host the Oklahoma City Thunder (46-15) on Sunday night, finishing out a three-game home stand where they’ve yet to win. After winning two in a row, Dallas put in two commanding tank performances against the Grizzlies and Kings. The Thunder are coming off an incredible overtime win against the Denver Nuggets. […]
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. The Thunder, who got Shai Gilgeous-Alexander back from his abdominal strain in Friday’s win over the Denver Nuggets, will look to keep the momentum rolling against a Mavericks team […]
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, […]
Dallas is set to host the West-leading Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday, their final home game before playing eight of their next nine games on the road. OKC is fresh off a hard-fought OT victory against conference foes Denver, while Dallas is coming off an equally crucial matchup against Memphis, and it’s safe to say […]
The Dallas Mavericks will convert point guard Ryan Nembhard’s two-way contract to a standard NBA deal, per Shams Charania. This comes on the heels of the Mavericks waiving newly acquired point guard Tyus Jones. Releasing Jones so he can possibly latch on with a playoff team opened a roster spot for Nembhard. Converting Nembhard to […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
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. But, when the injury list is as long as the active roster, it makes some sense. Unfortunately, let’s get to the grades. Brandon Williams: C 16 PTS / 8 […]
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. You would have sworn you were watching an NBA Summer League game if it weren’t […]
The Memphis Grizzlies (22-36) disassembled what was left of the Dallas Mavericks (21-38) on the second night of a back-to-back set on Friday, taking a 124-105 win at American Airlines Center. Cam Spencer led eight Grizzlies in double figures with 25 points on 4-of-8 shooting from 3-point range in the win. Brandon Williams led the […]
The Dallas Mavericks (21-37) host the Memphis Grizzlies (21-36) on Friday night. Dallas is coming off a rather shocking loss to the lowly Sacramento Kings. Memphis is locked in to their tank, losing three in a row recently, with losses to Miami, Sacramento, and Golden State. This is a match up between two teams racing […]
