The Mavs are coming off an excellent season where they were the fifth seed in the Western Conference with a 50-32 record.

They reached the NBA Finals for the first time since the 2011 season when Hall of Famer Dirk Nowitzki was still on the roster.

However, the Mavs lost to the Boston Celtics in five games.
