The 1995-96 NBA season was the Mavericks' 16th season in the NBA.[1] The Mavericks would take a step backward as Jamal Mashburn went down with a knee injury 18 games into the season. With Mashburn out injured, George McCloud would take his place in the lineup, averaging 18.9 points per game while finishing second in the league with 257 three-point field goals. However, Jason Kidd and Jim Jackson had trouble getting along, and Roy Tarpley was banned from the NBA for violating their drug policy. The Mavericks finished fifth in the Midwest Division with a 26–56 record. Kidd made his first All-Star appearance as he was selected to play in the 1996 NBA All-Star Game. In March, Ross Perot, Jr. purchased the team from founder Don Carter. Following the season, Popeye Jones was traded to the Toronto Raptors.
