The Dallas Mavericks took a massive step forward in Jason Kidd’s first season, and with JaVale McGee and Christian Wood brought in to give the team more frontcourt depth, Luka Doncic and the Mavs look ready for another deep playoff run in 2022-23.

Those are just a couple of the options if you’re cutting cable, so here’s a full guide on how you can watch a live stream of Mavericks games online in 2022-23, including options for both in-market and out-of-market viewers:

Mavericks Season Preview 2022-23

Fresh off of a deep postseason run, the Dallas Mavericks enter the new seasons with eyes on a championship.

“Our goal every year is to win a championship,” Mavericks superstar Luka Doncic said via NBA TV. “That was our goal last season and that’s our goal this season. But I think we got a little more respect around the league. I think we have a great team. We just got to believe.”

Doncic comes off fresh from playing in the EuroBasket tournament where he had a strong showing for Slovenia. He also had an MVP-caliber season last year with 28.4 points, 9.4 rebounds, and 8.7 assists per game. Doncic is in the running again for the MVP.

“It’s good. Not everybody can say they were MVPs in the league and in basketball, but you’ve got to get to there. You can’t have your name mentioned. You’ve got to get to there,” Doncic told the Dallas Morning News’ Callie Caplan.

Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd likes how Doncic looks early on, getting into better shape for the season.

“We all saw Luka’s taking his body serious…What I love about Luka is he never runs from opinions. He worked on his body and he took off,” Kidd via Showtime Basketball.

Dallas lost Jalen Brunson in the offseason to New York, but the Mavericks have plenty of talent around Doncic still. That includes Spencer Dinwiddie, Reggie Bullock, Dorian Finney-Smith, and JaVale McGee. Finney-Smith said he understands Brunson’s move.

“You see how much money they gave him? I would have been mad if he would have stayed here,” Finney-Smith told the media via Mavs.com’s Dwain Price.

Finney-Smith, who averaged 11 points and 4.7 rebounds per game last season, looks to help alleviate the loss of Brunson. Dinwiddie looks to build on a solid season last year and help the Mavericks thrive. He averaged 15.8 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 3.9 assists.

“I don’t really see myself filling Jalen’s role per se. There were a lot of games [last season] I finished games, there were games I played without Luka and without JB, and where I started games as well,” Dinwiddie said via Mavs.com. “But in terms of the mentality, green means go. Go make plays and try to win the game.”

Dallas will look for Bullock to make strides from last season. He averaged 8.6 points and 3.5 rebounds per game last year.

McGee could make a big addition to the lineup after coming over from Phoenix. He averaged 9.2 and 6.7 rebounds for the Suns last season.

“Whatever you throw at me, I’m ready. This is why I came here,” McGee said via Mavs.com. “I had plenty of opportunities to be a bench player, but he [Kidd] gave me an opportunity to be a starter. I take that whole-heartedly.”

The Mavericks also have quality reserves in Christian Wood, Tim Hardaway Jr., Maxi Kleber.
