Samaki Walker sits down with Byron Scott to revisit one of the wildest stretches in Dallas Mavericks history. He reflects on the Three J’s era with Jason Kidd, Jim Jackson, and Jamal Mashburn, the Toni Braxton situation that fractured the locker room, and the moment he and his teammates realized Kidd was gone mid-game. Samaki breaks down what was real, what was exaggerated, and how the fallout reshaped the franchise around a young Dirk Nowitzki.
From the legendary 1996 NBA Draft to his early years in Dallas under Don Nelson, Samaki brings firsthand stories of egos, internal politics, rising superstars, and the shift that would eventually set the stage for Dirk’s ascent. It’s a candid, funny, and brutally honest look inside a team stacked with talent, tension, and turning points.
