An NBA insider addressed a rumor that Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd is "secretly angling" to become the Knicks' coach.

However, veteran NBA insider Marc Stein doesn’t think Kidd is looking to leave the Mavericks for the Knicks. Stein has covered the Dallas franchise for many years. He's a Hall of Famer with a firm pulse on the Mavericks franchise.

Dallas Mavericks star Kyrie Irving isn’t bothering anyone’s business ever since he suffered a torn ACL injury. However, his name was dragged by NBA analyst

The Dallas Mavericks jumped up in the Draft Lottery for the first time in franchise history, and they jumped all the way up from 11th to 1st. If there was ever any year to get lucky like that, it's this year, with Duke star Cooper Flagg available as the consensus top prospect in the draft.

For a large group of NBA fans, the love for the game was damaged severely earlier this year when the Dallas Mavericks traded away franchise player Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers in return for Anthony Davis .

Thirteen players received formal invitations on Tuesday to attend the draft and sit in the green room later this month at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, according to ESPN’s Jonathan Givony. Among that group, obviously, is former Duke star and presumed No. 1 overall pick Copper Flagg.

Cooper Flagg is expected to go to Dallas after they won the 2025 NBA Draft Lottery with just a 1.8% chance at landing the top spot.

The Dallas Mavericks have a dire need of a point guard this offseason as Kyrie Irving rehabs from his torn ACL. Brandon Williams and Jaden Hardy are the only other guard on the roster, so unless they want to run Naji Marshall as the lead guard more, they'll have to go out and get somebody.
