With how well Ryan Nembhard has been playing for the Dallas Mavericks, their most obvious next step should be to clear up a 15-man roster spot and sign him to a standard contract. He’s been a revelation in the starting lineup, helping the Mavs to a 5-2 record as a member of the first five.

Dallas inked him to a two-way contract after the 2025 NBA Draft, and now, he looks like the type of player they will want to keep around alongside Cooper Flagg for the long haul.
