During the first three days of free agency, the Dallas Mavericks have made significant moves to solidify their point guard position. Former All-Star D’Angelo Russell has agreed to join the roster, providing a critical boost to the team during Kyrie Irving's recovery from ACL surgery. In addition, veteran guard Dante Exum will re-sign for one year, ensuring depth in the backcourt. The Mavericks also faced their first offseason subtraction, as Spencer Dinwiddie signed with the Charlotte Hornets.

The team is poised for a deep rotation under Jason Kidd, potentially featuring a robust starting lineup with prominent players such as Klay Thompson and Anthony Davis. However, adjustments will be necessary as they must trim their roster from 16 to 15 players before the season begins, likely necessitating a trade or release.
