1994–95 Dallas Mavericks season

The 1994–95 NBA season was the Mavericks' 15th season in the National Basketball Association. With the hopes of repeating history, the Mavericks brought back original head coach Dick Motta to restore a team that had compiled an awful 24–140 record over the last two years. The Mavericks had the second overall pick in the 1994 NBA draft, and selected Jason Kidd from the University of California. The team also signed free agent George McCloud, while former Sixth Man Roy Tarpley returned after being suspended by the NBA a few years ago. With the new trio of Kidd, second-year star Jamal Mashburn and Jim Jackson, the Mavericks had a formidable young foundation winning seven of their first eleven games. However, after a 16–17 start, they would lose eight straight games in January. Jackson average
