The Dallas Mavericks have seen a massive downfall in fan support since the team surprisingly traded away Luka Doncic. The city had adopted Doncic as one of its own, and to see him cast away to the side has left fans wondering why they should even support the Mavericks.
In a move to try and win back the fans, the Mavs announced late Friday night that they would be providing tickets to the Play-In Tournament to all season ticket members if they were to host the 9/10 game of the Play-In.
Dallas is currently in line to be the 9th seed, as they don’t have a realistic chance to catch the 8th seed, are they are slightly ahead of the Sacramento Kings in 10th. However, it would be typical of the 2025-26 Mavericks for the front office to promise something and not even be able to follow through on it because they fall to the 10th seed.
The Mavericks only have four games remaining, including Luka Doncic’s return to the American Airlines Center on April 9th. They also have games coming up against the lowly Toronto Raptors and the sinking Memphis Grizzlies, who Dallas could meet again in the Play-In if things break the right way.
