Dallas Mavericks sideline reporter

[Lesley McCaslin @LesleyMcCaslin]

Hi there. I’m Lesley. Sideline reporter for the Dallas Mavericks. Spent many years with the Texas Rangers & the OKC Thunder before now.

These are my precious children.

I’m here for conversation, lifting people up, & connecting. Don’t have time for hatefulness. ❤️

HORNS WIN, BABY 🤘

[Lesley McCaslin @LesleyMcCaslin]

@tj_ford I’m shocked 😔

[Lesley McCaslin @LesleyMcCaslin]

And yes, I’ve had a sports cry today. Because for me, being a sports reporter isn’t just about the game, it’s about the people. ❤️

[Russell Westbrook @russwest44]

Sometimes you don’t even know when you’ve already watched the end.

You had to be there. And now it’s over.

[Lesley McCaslin @LesleyMcCaslin]

….but, I'm so glad I got to be a small part of your journey. Thanks for all the memories and for making basketball so much fun. Just being in your orbit was thrilling for all of us.

Now, Why Not go do something even bigger?! @russwest44

[Lesley McCaslin @LesleyMcCaslin]

Man, so many thoughts after @russwest44 announced his retirement…but mainly, I didn’t know at the time that covering you in OKC would be the highlight of my career.

Congrats Russ, I'm sad it's over….

As the self-appointed head of PR for the Mavs broadcast, I love sharing outside recognition of the great work I think everyone associated with our telecast does. We truly have a group of smart, talented, experienced, hard-working people who are passionate about sports TV.

In all, the Mavs broadcast and content teams were nominated for Lone Star Emmy Awards in 15 categories and I counted over 30 people nominated. Specific to the broadcast are some of the nominations in the screenshots below. Congrats and good luck to all of our talented folks, and those from other teams, TV stations and networks around the state, who received nominations! And thanks to all out there watching and supporting what we do!

@JeffPassan @Buck One of my favorite people to ever get to know on the road. So incredibly kind, talented-and has the greatest stories. Z is the absolute best.

[Mark Followill @MFollowill]

Great job to all, especially our rock @TheDanaLarson who anchored all 4 and a half hours of our draft coverage in a chaotic but fun atmosphere!

Our production crew was outstanding and excellent on-air work by @Dev34Harris, @SkinWade, @coopmavs, @bdameris and @LesleyMcCaslin!
