The Dallas Mavericks entered a new chapter this week, a shift that seemed long overdue and pushed fans straight into rumor mode .

For the Mavericks, a closed door leaves another just slightly open
Bob Myers is not a candidate for the Mavericks. He's not even available for consulting work. After leaving ESPN, Myers stepped into a major new role as president of sports for Harris Blitzer Sports Entertainment. The position spans the Washington Commanders, Crystal Palace, the New Jersey Devils, and, of course, the Philadelphia 76ers. It's a massive job, one that demands his full attention and relentless focus. And it leaves Myers fully locked in and unavailable to jump back into NBA front-office work.
Yet the conversation isn't totally closed. Myers is close with new Mavericks CEO Rick Welts after their years together in Golden State . That relationship matters. Dallas will ask for input. Ideas. Possible names. Myers won't run the team, but he may help shape where it goes next.
For now, one external name has surfaced: Detroit Pistons executive Dennis Lindsey, a former adviser to Nico Harrison. Early signals suggest Lindsey would be interested. He brings experience, stability, and a reputation for building patiently, traits the Mavericks may value as it reshapes its identity.
