The Dallas Mavericks enter the 2022-2023 season planning to build on last year’s Western Conference finals run.
Luka Doncic improved this summer, and their added frontcourt depth gives head coach Jason Kidd more options in crucial moments.
Jalen Brunson left in free agency, but the Mavs believe they have the pieces to go on another deep playoff run.

This is the biggest question for Dallas this season. They could put their 2027 first-round pick on the table and trade for a veteran role player that helps them win more games right now, or they can stockpile those picks, so when their 2023 first-rounder conveys to the Knicks from the original Kristaps Porzingis trade, they have a full complement to deal.

Do they get an impactful role player now, or wait and go star hunting in the summer of 2023? That decision lays squarely on the shoulders of Nico Harrison, and the results could define his tenure as Mavericks GM. If they upgrade now but fail to become title contenders, Luka Doncic could leave Dallas and force the Mavs to rebuild. There are no guarantees the Mavs land a star, but not trying could be the reason Harrison and the team lose Luka.
Nico Harrison made a masterful trade on deadline day last season as he shipped Kristaps Porzingis and a second round to Washington for Spencer Dinwiddie and Davis Bertans. It gave the Mavs a needed ball handler, and Dinwiddie was a better fit next to Luka Doncic than the Unicorn. The deal helped push Dallas on a deep playoff run.
