1988–89 Dallas Mavericks season

The 1988–89 NBA season was the Mavericks' 9th season in the NBA.[1] The Mavericks finished the season fourth in the Midwest Division with a 38–44 record. It was the first time since 1983 that the team did not make the playoffs. The team had traded Mark Aguirre to the Detroit Pistons for Adrian Dantley, and dealt Detlef Schrempf to the Indiana Pacers for Herb Williams midway through the season. After hovering a few games over .500 for most of the season, The Mavericks collapsed and suffered a 12-game losing streak in March that sealed their fate for the entire season.[2]
