3 days ago | mavsmoneyball.com | Kirk Henderson

First, we spend a good chunk of time talking about Josh’s piece on Nico Harrison. There’ve been many media appearances by Dallas Mavericks officials since the Mavericks won the NBA Lottery in May. However, none of them have been by general manager Nico Harrison.

Petre Thomas-Imagn Images Matt Riccardi joined the Mavericks back in August of 2022 for a senior front office role. After the 2023 offseason wrapped up, he was promoted to assistant general manager in August of 2023. Last week was the first time I’ve heard Riccardi’s voice. Riccardi joined “Take Dat Wit You” earlier this week, a podcast from the Mavericks hosted by team radio broadcaster Brian Dameris and team television broadcaster Mark Followill.

David Banks-Imagn Images The Dallas Mavericks’ unfathomable stroke of luck jumping 10 spots in the draft and the opportunity to select Cooper Flagg has been felt by the organization financially, according to team CEO Rick Welts. In an appearance this week at a Wall Street Journal event, the Dallas Morning News notes that the longtime front office executive stated the team saw $7-million in new future ticket sales in the days following the NBA Draft Lottery.
The Dallas Wings need more out of their backcourt - or anyone, really

Photo by Andrew J. Clark/ISI Photos/Getty Images The 3-pointer wasn’t falling for the Dallas Wings in the first half on Saturday against the Atlanta Dream. Down the team’s two best ball handlers, Atlanta was content to pump the ball into Brittney Griner time and time again, for the most obvious of reasons.

Photo by Adam Bettcher/NBAE via Getty Images Look, no one likes starting a season with three straight losses. Your Dallas Wings are no exception. The Wings’ defense under first-year WNBA head coach Chris Koclanes needs a good bit of work, and the new-look offense has not yet gelled into the well-oiled cohesive unit the team appears to be on paper.
Dereck Lively’s sophomore season was only a disappointment because of high expectations

Petre Thomas-Imagn Images Dereck Lively’s second season felt a little lost, mostly due to injury, and also mostly due to team circumstance, which is a disappointment considering where Lively was at the end of his rookie year. He had just finished off a a spectacular season, instantly becoming a dominant rim defender and lob threat, while also flashing more advanced parts of his game, like passing and handling the ball as a hub of sorts from the elbows.

Wings vs. Storm Game Notes: Dallas’ outside shooting, interior defense fall short in 79-71 loss

Photo by Ron Jenkins/Getty Images ARLINGTON, TX — The Dallas Wings (0-2) dug deep in moments on Monday but couldn’t mount a comeback in a 79-71 loss to the Seattle Storm (1-1) at College Park Center. The Wings are a full-fledged construction zone at this point, with a renovation-style teardown and rebuild in effect in 2025, so there are still positives to be taken from a loss like Monday’s. The team’s 3-point shooting and interior defense, however, are not among them.

Photo by Jacek Boczarski/Anadolu via Getty Images The NBA, above all else, is a vehicle for entertainment. Sure, there’s interest in maintaining the highest level of skill and effort in the sporting world, as there is in maintaining the integrity of the game, at least inasmuch as those two goals dovetail with the first and foremost priority: growing the worldwide batch of eyeballs trained on NBA content at all times by putting out an entertaining product.
