The 2001–02 NBA season was the Mavericks' 22nd season in the National Basketball Association. [1] It was also their first season playing at American Airlines Center. [2] During the off-season, the Mavericks acquired All-Star point guard Tim Hardaway from the Miami Heat, [3] [4] [5] [6] and signed free agents Adrian Griffin, [7] [8] Johnny Newman, [9] and Danny Manning. [10] [11] The Mavericks continued to play solid basketball winning ten straight games between December and January, then post a 7-game winning streak also in January as they held a 35–14 record at the All-Star break. [12] At midseason, Hardaway was traded along with Juwan Howard to the Denver Nuggets in exchange for Nick Van Exel and Raef LaFrentz. [13] [14] [15] [16] The Mavericks finished fourth in the Western Conference, and second in the Midwest Division with a 57–25 record, [17] and made the playoffs in back to back seasons for the first time since 1988.

Dirk Nowitzki and Steve Nash were both selected to the 2002 NBA All-Star Game for the first time in their careers, while head coach Don Nelson was voted to coach the Western Conference. [18] [19] [20] Nowitzki led the team with 23.4 points and 9.9 rebounds per game, and was named to the All-NBA Second Team, while Nash averaged 17.9 points and led the team with 7.7 assists per game, and was selected to the All-NBA Third Team, and Michael Finley provided the team with 20.6 points and 5.2 rebounds per game. [21] Nowitzki also finished in eighth place in Most Valuable Player voting, while Nash finished in fourteenth place in Most Valuable Player voting, [22] and also finished in third place in Most Improved Player voting. [23] [24]

In the Western Conference First Round, the Mavericks swept the Minnesota Timberwolves in three straight games, [25] [26] [27] [28] but then lost in five games to the Sacramento Kings in the Western Conference Semi-finals. [29] [30] [31] [32] Following the season, Greg Buckner signed as a free agent with the Philadelphia 76ers, [33] [34] while Newman retired, and Manning was released to free agency, and signed with the Detroit Pistons midway through the next season. [35]

For the season, the Mavericks changed their primary logo, which showed a horse in front of a blue basketball above the team name "Mavericks", [36] and also changed their uniforms, adding dark navy blue and light blue along with grey and black to their color scheme. [37] [38] The home jerseys remained in use until 2014, while the road jerseys lasted until 2010. Their primary logo is still present as of 2024.
