Next Mavs Head Coach Betting Odds
After 13 years with the Dallas Mavericks, Rick Carlisle informed the organization yesterday that he won’t be returning next season. BetOnline has made Jamahl Mosley the odds-on favorite to replace him but priced generously at -110.
Carlisle led the Mavericks to the 2011 NBA title. His decision was announced one day after general manager Donnie Nelson and the team agreed to part ways, ending a 24-year run for Nelson as part of the organization.
“This was solely my decision,” Carlisle said in a statement released to ESPN shortly before the team announced that he was leaving.
Dallas becomes the seventh team with an coaching vacancy heading into the summer months.

Carlisle told ESPN that he had “a number of in-person conversations” with team owner Mark Cuban in recent days, then came to the decision that it was time to go, even after Cuban insisted Carlisle's position was safe.
“Rick informed me today about his decision to step down as head coach,” Cuban said. “On top of being a tremendous basketball coach, he was also a friend and a confidant. Rick helped us bring the O’Brien Trophy to Dallas and those are memories I will always cherish.”
