EMERGENCY POD: Dallas Mavereicks Hire Masai Ujiri as Team President and Alternate Governor

Author: Dalton Trigg May 4, 2026 Duration: 20:45

With the NBA Draft Lottery and the rest of the NBA offseason quickly approaching, it was time for the Mavs to have that position locked down before some tough decisions had to be made about the roster this offseason. After coming off a one-year hiatus, Ujiri should be energized and eager to build a title contender around Cooper Flagg.
