Christian Wood is thriving in his first season with the Dallas Mavericks

"Individually, of course, I want to be an All-Star in this league," said Wood. "I think I have a good chance if I get the time and the minutes to show what I can really do. I think I can definitely make a case for that. I want to try to win as many games as I can. I want to get to the playoffs. I haven’t been to the playoffs one time in my career. I want to try to make a run in the playoffs."

Wood will be a free agent this offseason. Wood was asked about his thoughts on the future.

"I guess we’ll see," said Wood. "I haven’t really thought too much about it. I want to win. I’m not worried about a contract or an extension. I’m just focused on trying to win."
