According to The Stein Line, one familiar face for young star Cooper Flagg could emerge among the Mavericks' potential coaching options, as Dallas is expected to explore conversations with Duke head coach Jon Scheyer.
"It remains to be seen whether Duke's Jon Scheyer or Michigan's Dusty May reach full-fledged candidate status with Dallas since both are so entrenched with their universities, but league sources tell The Stein Line that there has been exploratory conversation with both college titans to try to determine if there is any interest," the report stated.
"May, of course, just won a national championship with the Wolverines, while Scheyer coached Flagg as a Blue Devils freshman in 2024-25."
However, a more realistic outcome for Dallas remains hiring someone from within the NBA.
"Yet the more realistic outcome for Dallas remains hiring someone from within the NBA and, to that end, sources say that the Mavericks have either already registered official interest or plan to do so with a number of prominent assistant coaches. Those include Minnesota's Micah Nori, Houston's Royal Ivey, Toronto's Jama Mahlalela, Boston's Tony Dobbins and Miami consultant Noah LaRoche," The Stein Line added.
