In a recent interview, a Dallas Mavericks insider revealed that Kyrie Irving holds the key to his future in Dallas.

Cuban became more than just an owner. He wanted to be the face of the franchise, the decision-maker, the fixer, and sometimes even the story. The Mavericks missed on big free agents, made puzzling trades, and burned through role players like they were interchangeable parts. Through it all, Cubans stayed front and center.

The Dallas Mavericks could not find a way to stop the bleeding Tuesday night.Dallas fell to the Boston Celtics 110-100 at American Airlines Center, extending their losing streak to five games. The Mavericks dropped to 19-31 on the season and remain firmly on the outside of the playoff picture looking in.

In this NBA mock trade, the Dallas Mavericks trade veteran wing and five-time All-Star Klay Thompson to the Houston Rockets.

Klay came to Dallas to win a title with Luka, not to play on a rebuilding team.

San Antonio guard Stephon Castle had a career-high 40 points, 12 rebounds and 12 assists for his second career triple-double, leading the Spurs past the Dallas Mavericks 138-125.

This is now the second Dallas Mavericks guard who won't play for the Wizards after the Anthony Davis trade.

During a recent interview with Mavericks' legend Dirk Nowitzki for NBA on Prime, Flagg received advice on how to build the stepping stones.
