| Cooper Flagg has won the 2025-26 NBA Rookie of the Year award. Ari Koslow Mon, Apr 27th | Dereck Lively II has not yet been cleared to run. Ari Koslow Sun, Jun 28th | |
| Cooper Flagg left Sunday's game early against the Bulls with an ankle injury. Ari Koslow Mon, Apr 13th | Derek Lively II (foot) will undergo season-ending surgery on his right foot. Garrett Ball Wed, Dec 10th | |
| Cooper Flagg is available for Friday's game against the Spurs. Ari Koslow Fri, Apr 10th | Dereck Lively II (foot) is currently without a timetable for his return. Leo Sells Thu, Dec 4th | |
| Cooper Flagg is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Spurs. Ari Koslow Thu, Apr 9th | Swelling and discomfort in his right foot will force Dereck Lively II to the sidelines for at least the next three games. The Mavericks announced Tuesday that they will re-evaluate the center in seven-to-ten days, a timeline that aligns with earlier reports from insider Marc Stein regarding fears of an extended absence. Bruno Mulé Tue, Nov 25th | |
| Flagg went 4-of-19 from the field Wednesday but still found ways to contribute — 11 points (4-of-19 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), 12 rebounds, six assists, one steal, and one block in the loss to the Suns. He was the only Dallas player to collect double-digit rebounds. Bruno Mulé Thu, Apr 9th | Reports from NBA insider Marc Stein indicate there is fear within the Mavericks organization that Dereck Lively could be sidelined for an extended period due to a foot injury. While his absence from Monday's game against Miami was officially listed as injury management, this new development suggests the issue may be more serious. Bruno Mulé Tue, Nov 25th | |
