The NBA announced the finalists for its regular season awards for the 2023-24 season, including Most Valuable Player, Defensive Player of the Year, and Rookie of the Year. 

The list of finalists for the MVP award includes Denver Nuggets’ Nikola Jokic, Dallas Mavericks’ Luka Doncic, and Oklahoma City Thunder’s Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Jokic is looking for his third MVP award, while Doncic and Gilgeous-Alexander are the first-time finalists.

Minnesota Timberwolves’ Rudy Gobert is looking to add another DPOY award to his resume, having claimed the honor three times so far. He will be challenged by Miami Heat’s Bam Adebayo and San Antonio Spurs’ rookie Victor Wembanyama.

Wembanyama is also in the running for the ROY award and is the overwhelming favorite to win it. OKC’s Chet Holmgren and Charlotte Hornets’ Brandon Miller are the two other finalists.

OKC’s Mark Daigneault, Timberwolves’ Chris Finch, and Orlando Magic’s Jamahl Mosley are in the running for the Coach of the Year award. Daigneault led his team to a 57-25 record and the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference, while Finch and Timberwolves finished just one win behind OKC with a 56-26 record. Mosley, on the other hand, guided the Magic to the fifth seed in the Eastern Conference with a 47-35 record and the first playoff appearance since 2019–20.

The finalists for the NBA Sixth Man of the Year award are Malik Monk (Sacramento Kings), Bobby Portis (Milwaukee Bucks), and Naz Reid (Timberwolves). Tyrese Maxey (Philadelphia 76ers), Alperen Sengun (Houston Rockets), and Coby White (Chicago Bulls) are in the running for the Most Improved Player award, while the Clutch Player of the Year award will go to either Stephen Curry (Golden State Warriors), DeMar DeRozan (Bulls) or Gilgeous-Alexander.

The winners for each award will be announced during the NBA playoffs.

The Dallas Mavericks’ superstar Luka Doncic saw his impressive triple-double streak end in a 109-99 win over the Golden State Warriors. Doncic was forced to exit the game halfway through the fourth quarter due to a hamstring issue and finished the night with 21 points, nine rebounds, and three assists.

Entering the Warriors’ game, Doncic was on a tear that saw him notch a triple-double in seven consecutive games and set a pair of NBA records. He set the record for most consecutive triple-doubles with at least 30 points (six) and most consecutive triple-doubles with 35 points (five).

“He just gave me a signal that his hamstring was tight, so we took him out,” said Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd after the game.

Doncic is currently leading the league with 34.3 points per game while also averaging 9.0 rebounds and 9.8 assists. The Mavs are currently eight in the West and have won their last four games. 

While Doncic wasn’t able to keep his streak going, another Mavs player is still keeping his alive. Daniel Gafford continued his streak of consecutive field goals made against the Warriors, going five out of five from the floor. Gafford has now made 33 field goals in the past five games, pulling closer to Wilt Chamberlain’s NBA record of 35.

Dallas Mavericks’ superstar Luka Doncic is the new member of the NBA’s 10,000 points club. Doncic reached the mark after scoring 50 points in a 128-114 win over the Phoenix Suns on Monday night.

Doncic needed just 358 games to reach 10K career points in the NBA, which is the seventh fastest in league history. The most recent player to do it in fewer games was legendary Michael Jordan.

While the highlight of the night was his scoring, Doncic impacted the Suns’ game in all sorts of other ways. He also dished 15 assists and grabbed six rebounds while adding four steals and three blocks.

“Always, when this kind [of] award comes with a win, it’s even more fun,” said Doncic after the game. “It was a tough road game, and we won. So, outside of the 10K and 50 points, we won the game. So, I’m really happy.”

Doncic has been on a tear so far in 2023-24, making a case for the NBA’s Most Valuable Player award. He is averaging a career-high 33.5 points and 9.4 assists while adding 8.5 rebounds and shooting a career-best 38.7 from behind the arc.

Thanks to Doncic’s impressive run, the Mavs are currently fifth in the Western Conference with an 18-12 record.

Luka Doncic has been cleared to play in the Dallas Mavericks’ game against the Houston Rockets on Tuesday night despite being questionable due to suffering a thumb injury.

Doncic’s left thumb was injured during the first quarter of the Mavs’ 107-88 loss to the LA Clippers on Saturday night when he attempted to steal the ball from the Clippers’ James Harden during the first quarter, striking his thumb against Harden’s knee. Despite his injury, Doncic decided to play on in the game, scoring 30 points in 38 minutes.

At half-time, Doncic underwent X-rays, while an MRI on Monday revealed that he suffered a “low grade” sprain. Doncic’s inclusion in Tuesday night’s game is a welcome sight for the Mavericks, with the player averaging 30.5 points, 7.9 rebounds and 7.8 assists in 16 games this season.

Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic will be sidelined for his team’s road game against the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday night. This comes after he picked up a left thigh strain.

The Mavericks’ point guard has been harboring a left thigh injury for several games, with the pain getting progressively worse over time. As a result, Doncic exited during the third quarter from the Mavericks’ 113-106 loss to the New Orleans Pelicans on Wednesday.

Doncic underwent an MRI scan on Thursday, however, no damage on his thigh was revealed. Sources revealed to ESPN that Doncic is expected to be able to return to action once his discomfort subsides.

In addition to Doncic, Kyrie Irving has been listed as questionable as he continues to experience right foot soreness. “Hopefully, he’ll be able to join us in Memphis,” Dallas coach Jason Kidd told reporters when asked about the player’s fitness.

Currently, the Mavericks consider Doncic’s injury as being day-to-day, Kidd revealed.

Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic picked up an ankle sprain during his team’s 99-95 win over the Phoenix Suns on Thursday night. Doncic exited during the first quarter of the game after stepping on the foot of a Suns defender while pivoting on his left ankle.

Following the incident, Mavericks coach Jason Kidd decided to call a timeout with 8:39 left on the clock in the first quarter of play. Doncic was subsequently substituted and escorted to the locker room by Casey Smith, the Mavericks’  director of player health and performance. Dallas announced at the end of the first period that Doncic would not be returning to the game.

Doncic later underwent an X-ray, the result of which came up negative. According to Kidd, Doncic remained “in good spirits” after the game. “He looked good, he looked fine,” Kidd confirmed before cautioning, “But we’ll see how he feels as we go forward.”

The NBA’s leading scorer this season with 33.8 points per game, Doncic is also averaging a team-best 9.1 rebounds and 8.6 assists per game. Any potential absence of Doncic from the Mavs’ lineup would pose a major obstacle, with the Mavs going 0-5 in games without Doncic this season.

Guard Luka Doncic was unavailable to play in the Dallas Mavericks’ 144-115 loss to the Chicago Bulls at the United Center on Saturday night after incurring a right quadriceps strain.

Dallas struggled without the 23-year-old star in their ranks as the Bulls delivered their greatest offensive output of the season. DeMar DeRozan grabbed 28 points and nine rebounds, while Nikola Vucevic scored 20 points and racked up eight rebounds. The Bulls shot a season-high 63.5% in to grab their second straight victory.

Doncic initially felt quad pain during the Mavericks’ narrow 106-105 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday night, during which he grabbed 33 points, 11 assists, and six rebounds. The Slovenian had to leave the court after 37 minutes as a result.

Joining Doncic on the sidelines is forward Maxi Kleber, who is struggling with right foot soreness, and guard Josh Green, who is recovering from a right elbow sprain. Both players appeared alongside Doncic in Friday’s loss before being ruled out of Saturday’s game.

At present, the Mavericks find themselves in 10th position on the Western Conference standings. They next face the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday night as they look to overturn a two-game losing streak.

No NBA team has ever made it back to win the series after trailing 0-3 in the playoffs. However, the Dallas Mavericks believe they can be the first one to do it after avoiding the sweep in the Western Conference Finals matchup against the Golden State Warriors.

The Mavs entered Tuesday’s Game 4 facing elimination but rose to the occasion and got the 119-109 win. It was mostly thanks to their superstar Luka Doncic, who finished the contest with 30 points, 14 rebounds, and nine assists.

Speaking with reporters after the game, Doncic said that his team believes they can turn things around despite facing a massive challenge.

“I mean, I still believe we can win, you know,” Doncic said. “Swept or not swept, in the end, if you lose, you lose. Don’t matter how many we win. We have to go game by game. We’re going to believe until the end.”

Getting another lease on life is nothing new for the Mavericks. They were written off after failing 0-2 to the favored Phoenix Suns in the second round, and no one gave them a chance to get back from 2-3 in the same series. However, Dallas proved everyone wrong both times, and you can’t blame them for thinking they can do it once again.

Although the comeback from 0-3 never happened, some teams did get close. In the 1951 NBA Finals, the New York Knicks evened the series 3-3 against the Rochester Royals (present-day Sacramento Kings), only to lose in Game 7. The same thing happened to the Denver Nuggets in 1994’s second round against the Utah Jazz and Portland Trail Blazers against the Mavericks in the first round of the 2003 playoffs.

The Dallas Mavericks’ phenom Luka Doncic didn’t disappoint in his NBA playoffs second-round debut. Facing the Phoenix Suns in Game 1 of the 2022 Western Conference semis, Doncic scored 45 points while also adding 12 rebounds and eight assists. He also did that while being guarded by the NBA Defensive Player of the Year finalist Mikal Bridges.

Unfortunately for the Mavs and Doncic, his amazing performance wasn’t enough to overcome the No. 1 seeded Suns. Relying on team play and newly-recovered All-Star guard Devin Booker, Phoenix claimed a comfortable 121-114 win and took an important lead in the series. 

Booker finished the game with 23 points, nine rebounds, and eight assists, while DeAndre Ayton added 25 points and eight boards. All the remaining Suns’ starters were in double digits as well.

Dallas only had three other players besides Doncic to score more than eight points. Also, Doncic outscored the remainder of the Dallas’ starting lineup by six points. This disparity was noted by head coach Jason Kidd, who said after the game that other Mavs players need to step up as well.

“We’ve just got to get someone to join the party,” Kidd said.

The Mavs will have a chance to bounce back on Wednesday when the two teams are scheduled to face in Game 2 at the Footprint Center.

The regular-season MVP award doesn’t always mean that much in the context of the actual playoffs, but that doesn’t mean it’s not important. It’s the biggest level of individual praise a player can receive in the NBA—but who will win it this year?

Luka Dončić

A great candidate for the award is the Dallas Mavericks young leader, Luka Dončić. If he can manage to lead his team to one of the top three seeds in the West, voters may be swayed in his favor.

Giannis Antetokounmpo

An obvious choice for the award is the Greek Freak, who also happened to win it the last two years. Can Giannis go for a three-peat?

James Harden

James Harden has averaged over 30 points per game the last three seasons, and he’ll likely extend that streak to this season too. He’s already won the MVP before, but there’s no reason he won’t be able to do it again.

Kawhi Leonard

Kawhi is known best for his ability to come through in the postseason, but there’s still no reason a player of his stature has never won an MVP. Depending on how far the Clippers go this season (and how often he suits up), look for voters to maybe give him the nod.

LeBron James

Although LeBron has four MVP trophies in his back pocket, his game is still looking fresher than ever. If he can smoothly transfer the Lakers’ success from last year over to this year, he might be able to snag number five.

Kevin Durant

Regarded by many to be the best player in the league, Kevin Durant is certainly a candidate to win his second MVP. If he can lead the Brooklyn Nets to the number one seed, he might just do it.
