  • The Mavericks have dismissed head athletic trainer Dionne Calhoun and athletic performance director Keith Belton, among others, sources tell ESPN.

The Dallas Mavericks have fired head athletic trainer Dionne Calhoun and head strength and conditioning coach Casey Smith, as reported by ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski and Tim MacMahon. This decision follows a season where the team struggled with injuries, notably to key players like Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving. The dismissals are part of a broader review of the team's medical and performance staff, initiated by general manager Nico Harrison, aiming to enhance player health and performance. The Mavericks, who reached the Western Conference finals in the previous season, are now focusing on restructuring their support staff to better support their roster in the upcoming season.
