The 2023–24 Dallas Mavericks season is the 44th season for the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA).

At the February trade deadline, the Mavericks were 8th in the Western Conference with a 29–23 record when they acquired center Daniel Gafford from the Washington Wizards and forward P. J. Washington from the Charlotte Hornets. With Gafford, Washington and rookie Dereck Lively II on the roster, the team went 22–9 since the deadline and finished 5th in the West. They improved upon their 38–44 record from last season and qualified for the playoffs after a one-year absence.

The Mavs defeated the Los Angeles Clippers and the top-seeded Oklahoma City Thunder each in six games to advance to their second Conference Finals appearance in three seasons, where they defeated the Minnesota Timberwolves in five games to advance to the 2024 NBA Finals, the franchise’s first Finals appearance in 13 years since their lone title in 2011.
