The star point guard has seemingly found a home and a building block for the future.
The Dallas Mavericks might have lost the NBA Finals in five games at the hands of the Boston Celtics, but they've more than proven capable of making it to the biggest stage in basketball. With Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving as the team's two stars, who have proven to be a good fit alongside each other, the team has a true contender to work with and build on moving forward.
What the Mavericks can control is who they surround the two stars with. Athletic players capable of catching alley-oops and playing strong defense are proven archetypes, but a lot relies on their ability to make shots and help the offense function.Either way, there's a baseline contender in having Doncic, Irving, and tweaks around them. They'll be a contender for the next few years, and that's what Irving wants.
Sure, the Mavericks lost this NBA Finals, but the Celtics lost in 2022 to the Golden State Warriors. They regrouped, tweaked their roster, and now, two years later, are raising their 18th banner. Dallas can try to emulate something similar. They've made the Finals, the championship window is here and continuity and small tweaks can help the team raise its ceiling and make another push for the Larry O'Brien.
