The Dallas Mavericks celebrated their 40th anniversary of becoming an NBA franchise on May 1. There have been a ton of memorable moments over those four decades. The crown jewel is Dirk Nowitzki bringing the 2011 championship to Dallas, but fans are flush with them.
Plenty more appear on the horizon, as well. Luka Doncic is already a superstar and top-five player in the NBA as a 21-year-old. Kristaps Porzingis flanks Luka as a bona fide second star. The Mavs are on the verge of ending their playoff drought. They have a bright future.
