Mavericks sit $2.2 million under luxury tax ahead of potential signings

The Dallas Mavericks were $2.2 million under the luxury tax line as of August 21, 2026. This position allows them to explore signings, particularly with notable free agent Klay Thompson, who has a minimum salary requirement of $3.9 million. The Mavericks may need to adjust their roster following Thompson's buyout, which suggests he has forfeited some salary to facilitate a move. There are implications for their upcoming decisions as they remain active in the market to strengthen their lineup.
