- 7/9 Reports are that Dallas is adding former Mav player Popeye Jones as an assistant coach. Popeye has been an assistant with Denver for the past 4 seasons. The reason for all these reports of new assistants is that a lot of Dallas assistants are reportedly moving on: Sean Sweeney, Jared Dudley, and God Shammgod (plus Alex Jenson left in March to become college Utah's head coach, Marko Milic left after Luka Doncic was traded, and Darrell Armstrong was suspended after he was arrested assualt with a deadly weapon in February)
- 7/8 Signed Moussa Cisse and Matthew Cleveland to non-guaranteed contracts.
- 7/7 Note: neither 24-25 2-way players Kai Jones and Kessler Edwards are on the summer league roster, meaning Dallas is likely not going to re-sign them. The Mavs signed undrafted players Miles Kelly and Ryan Nembhard to 2-way contracts after the draft end.
