By Tyler Watts
Dallas Mavericks center Salah Mejri gave fans plenty to cheer about in the 2018-2019 season. Enjoy his highlight reel here.
Dallas Mavericks big man Salah Mejri never lacks for confidence on the court. Mejri believes he is going to make or block every shot.
The 7’2 center has only played for the Mavs during his NBA career. He has plenty of professional experience in Europe besides his four seasons in Dallas. Mejri turns 33 in June and is heading into unrestricted free agency this offseason.
He struggled to find playing time early in the season. Mejri can only play the five and struggles against small-ball centers making it difficult for him to play consistent significant minutes.
He played well when given the time on the court, though. Over the final eight games of the season, Mejri averaged 9.9 points, 7.6 rebounds, 2.1 assists, and 1.7 blocks per game in just 18.7 minutes a night. He had a career-high 19 points on April 7 against the Grizzlies.
