The Mas' new head coach clearly already trusts Morez Johnson Jr.

Sergio De Larrea just made the Mavericks' battle for the backup point guard spot behind Kyrie Irving much more interesting with a strong preseason debut.

Mavericks forward Cooper Flagg looks like he's going to be a superstar during his second season after a big game against the Rockets.

While nothing is ironed out ahead of the start of the regular season, P.J. Washington has a clear advantage to assume Dallas' starting power forward spot.

Jason Kidd could be headed to ESPN, but his time in Dallas raises some serious questions about how he'll fit behind the mic.

Dallas offers a new setting for Marcus Sasser that should work out for him as he looks to put his struggles in Detroit behind him.

Dallas was smart not to bring Kyrie Irving back from his ACL tear last season -- especially after hearing he was dealing with a calf injury at the same time.

Zaccharie Risacher is in the perfect place to have a bounce-back season and be a candidate to win Most Improved Player.
