The Mavs are coming off a season where they were the fifth seed in the Western Conference with a 50-32 record.
They made the NBA Finals for the first time since the 2011 season when Dirk Nowitzki was still on the roster.
Doncic, Kyrie Irving (and now Klay Thompson), make up one of the most talented rosters in the league.
