Dallas features as the Luka‐driven platform; the 95 OVR underscores the team’s offensive identity and fantasy potential. Expect Luka to anchor high‐scoring games, with upside for teammates who benefit from space and pace around his playmaking.

Dončić’s Mavericks benefit from a high-usage playmaker alongside LeBron, potentially boosting shooting and spacing. The pairing could raise fantasy upside for wing players while maintaining Dončić’s high-volume output, setting a robust ceiling for the team’s overall fantasy production.

Irving’s prior Dallas appearance in Bueckers’ orbit and the Wings’ All-Star week context underscores cross-ecosystem appeal and brand synergy around Bueckers’ surge, highlighting how star power can lift a franchise’s profile and fantasy chatter in the Wings’ orbit.

Flagg is No. 79 with an 82 rating, the top rookie in NBA 2K26 and clearly the Mavericks’ future, four points clear of Dylan Harper. His inclusion signals upside-driven fantasy value in dynasty formats, with a potential long runway as Dallas builds around him.

Irving sits No. 24 in the Top 100 with a 90 rating, but ACL rehab will push a slow return timeline. His ball-handling is elite (99), and he remains a creator of offense whose absence impacts Dallas’ early-season juice and fantasy upside.
