The Dallas Mavericks are off to a rough 5-14 start, and with injuries piling up, trade rumors have begun to swirl. However, despite the team’s struggles and external noise, the front office has reportedly made its position clear on one key player: Kyrie Irving is not on the trading block.

As the Charlotte Hornets once again sit near the bottom of the Eastern Conference standings, LaMelo Ball's future with the organization is becoming less certain.

Despite the Dallas Mavericks' dismal start this season, the team has reportedly no plans of making star guard Kyrie Irving available in trade talks.
