Washington Wizards record versus Dallas Mavericks last season: 1-1
The Dirk Nowitzki era is officially over in Dallas after 21 Hall-of-Fame seasons. The Mavericks aren’t out of the conversation now that their Euro legend is gone, though. In true Mavericks fashion, they’ve reloaded with not one but two promising European stars.
By acquiring Kristaps Porzingis from the New York Knicks in the middle of last season, the Mavericks locked up one of the more intriguing young duos in the NBA. While Porzingis sat out the entire season as he recovered from an ACL tear, his new teammate Luka Doncic was on his way to winning Rookie of the Year.
