At its core, sports fandom is about enjoying watching your favorite team or player do well. Much of this summer of Dallas Mavericks fandom has revolved around discussing the loss of Jalen Brunson, the addition of Christian Wood and where those moves leave the Mavericks going forward. The rest of the discussion has been centered around Luka Doncic’s fitness.
All of those things are important for the Mavericks going forward but they do not get to the heart of current Mavericks fandom, watching Doncic be absolutely amazing. Doncic does many things at a truly elite level.
