Dallas Faces a Crossroads: Can Building Around Cooper Flagg Ignite a Championship Dream?
That 3-8 start, along with Irving’s continued absence, points to a clear direction the Mavericks should take:
Pivot hard and start building around Flagg. Now.
Dallas controls its own draft pick this season, in what is considered a very deep draft at the top. The Mavericks do not control their own picks from 2027 to 2030 — they have only one shot at this.
Doing that leads to other obvious moves. That starts with trading Anthony Davis, maybe at the trade deadline but definitely by next summer. Explore trading some of the other veterans, including Irving, as well as Daniel Gafford, Naji Marshall and P.J. Washington (Dereck Lively, at age 21, should stick around).
