The Dallas Mavericks are set to name University of Michigan coach Dusty May as their next head coach, according to multiple sources familiar with the decision.
The agreement, reached on June 22, 2026, will bring May from the collegiate ranks to the NBA in a move that has surprised many league observers. Details of the contract were not disclosed.
May had been leading the Michigan Wolverines before accepting the Mavericks’ offer. His hiring ends Dallas’s search for a successor after the organization parted ways with its previous coach earlier this offseason.
Additional information about May’s coaching staff and introductory press conference is expected to be announced by the Mavericks in the coming days.
