DALLAS — Dallas Mavericks fans finally got a win, but not one to be proud of.
A new Vegas Insider study shows Mavericks fans were the most negative in the NBA, with over 32% of their comments categorized as negative.
Examining over 1.3 million Reddit comments from the 2024-2025 NBA season, the analysis ranked each team’s fanbase based on vulgarity, sentiment and most frequent swear words.
Among the nation’s most vulgar fan bases, Mavs fans secured a top-five spot.
Among the top five are also the Knicks, Grizzlies, Pacers, and Timberwolves.
The least negative fan bases in the county are the Spurs, Wizards, Trail Blazers, Jazz and Raptors.
In a stunning three-way trade announced on Feb. 2, the reigning Western Conference champion Dallas Mavericks sent Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers in exchange for Anthony Davis.
The trade sparked outrage among Mavs fans, with Doncic’s father, Sasa, even stating his son was undeserving of such treatment.
To show their disapproval of the trade, fans have staged protests outside the American Airlines Center.
