The 2014–15 Dallas Mavericks season was the 35th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA). The Mavericks finished fourth in the Southwest Division and seventh in the Western Conference with a 50–32 record. The Mavs' season ended with a 1–4 first round playoff series loss to the Houston Rockets.

The Mavericks acquired Rajon Rondo from the Boston Celtics in a mid-season trade. However, Rondo ran into problems with head coach Rick Carlisle including engaging in a shouting match with Carlisle after being benched. Rondo left the team at the end of the season to join the Sacramento Kings. Monta Ellis led the team in scoring which marked the first time since 1999-2000 someone other than Dirk Nowitzski led the Mavericks in scoring.
