The Dallas Mavericks are struggling through their first 10 games of the 2025-26 NBA season with a 3-7 record and the league's worst offense, despite a top-5 defense. Rookie Cooper Flagg has faced challenges adjusting to point guard duties, while Anthony Davis has missed five games due to a calf strain. Reports indicate growing pressure on general manager Nico Harrison, with ownership contemplating an in-season change.

Fifth-round rookie Shedeur Sanders had a difficult NFL debut in the Cleveland Browns' 23-16 loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. Entering at halftime after starter Dillon Gabriel suffered a concussion, Sanders completed 4 of 16 passes for 47 yards and an interception. The Browns were outscored 13-0 in the second half against a Ravens defense on a four-game winning streak.
