Dallas Mavericks: DeShawn Stevenson talks 2011 championship, Dirk, and more

The Dallas Mavericks pulled off one of the biggest NBA Finals upsets in 2011 when they knocked off LeBron James and Miami Heat. DeShawn Stevenson played a key role during the Mavs title season. The 6’5 wing brought the team needed defense and toughness.

The current Mavericks could use a DeShawn Stevenson type. They will be searching for defense and toughness this offseason. It will be interesting to see if they can find it and make a deep playoff run in 2021.
