The Dallas Mavericks are looking to turn things around for the upcoming 2023-2024 NBA season. As fans might be aware, the team did not live up to set expectations last season. Despite acquiring a talented star in Kyrie Irving towards the end of the 2022-2023 NBA season, the Mavs fell out of contention for the NBA playoffs and even failed to make the play-in tournament.
Many NBA experts cited the lack of chemistry and time together that Irving had with Luka Doncic and the other Mavs as a reason for their lack of success. Since the Mavs fell short, people felt that Irving might not sign a new contract with the Mavs and could potentially leave them empty-handed.
Thankfully for Mavericks fans, Kyrie signed a 3-year contract worth $120 million this offseason and is expected to be a part of the Dallas Mavericks for the upcoming season. Moreover, Dallas also made other moves in order to ensure that they are better this year. With that being said, let us take a closer look at the depth chart and roster for the Mavericks as they enter the 2023-2024 NBA season.
Grant Williams and Seth Curry are some of the new additions for the Dallas Mavericks
Despite not having made a significant impact on the NBA playoffs last season, it looks like the Dallas Mavericks’ faith and confidence in Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic is unshaken. They have added new players to the roster in order to give them a deeper bench and more talent.
