LeBron’s next stop? Not anytime soon. Rich Paul says a decision is still months away, with ten teams in play — but Dallas isn’t among the favorites. While the Mavericks are still in the mix, execs lean toward the Warriors or Heat. A return to Cleveland? Only if LeBron takes a minimum deal — unlikely. Meanwhile, the Mavs are building fast: Masai Ujiri’s hired, Dusty May’s the new coach, and they’ve added Santi Aldama and more firepower. With Kyrie back and cash to spend, Dallas is reshaping its future — while LeBron’s future remains a mystery.

Garrett Temple, the undrafted NBA veteran known for his quiet leadership and veteran presence, is officially stepping into his next chapter as an assistant coach for the Dallas Mavericks — a move that feels like a perfect fit for a player who spent his career mentoring, not just scoring. After averaging under 11 minutes per game for the last four seasons and putting up modest stats (just under 6 PPG), Temple’s real value was in his wisdom, resilience, and ability to guide younger players. A four-year standout at LSU and son of Collis Temple Jr., the first Black player in Tigers history, Garrett’s journey from bench player to bench coach is a testament to his deep love for the game and his knack for teaching.
