Argentina fans gather in Dallas for ‘Banderazo Argentino’ ahead of World Cup match
Argentina fans are gathering at Klyde Warren Park in Dallas on Sunday evening for a traditional “Banderazo Argentino” ahead of the team’s upcoming FIFA World Cup match in North Texas.
Hundreds of fans gathered in anticipation of Argentina’s first North Texas game in the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Fans began to gather on Sunday, and by 4 p.m., the park was a sea of blue and white jerseys.
The crowd expressed their support for the team with drums, chants, and flags, celebrating iconic Argentina players like Lionel Messi.
The gatherings, known as banderazos, bring supporters together in celebration. Rallies have been scheduled for the days before each Argentina game in Arlington.
Argentina will face Austria on Monday, June 22, and Jordan on Saturday, June 27. Fans will gather again on June 26.
A similar event drew nearly 3,000 fans to the park during Argentina’s 2022 World Cup run, turning downtown Dallas into a sea of blue and white.

Mavericks’ Potential 2026 NBA Draft Trade Down Target Revealed
There are just two days remaining before the 2026 NBA Draft. While the Dallas Mavericks still don’t have a head coach in place, rumors are starting to heat up about their draft plans. They have new management, led by team president Masai Ujiri and general manager Mike Schmitz, which could send the team in an entirely new direction.
As of Sunday, they enter the draft with the 9th, 30th, and 48th overall picks. According to reports, the Mavericks are willing to move up or down the board if the right players are available. There have been a lot of talks of them moving down, in particular, as the Oklahoma City Thunder and Charlotte Hornets each have two picks between 12 and 18.
If they are to trade down, NBA insider Jake Fischer has identified a possible prospect they would target: Washington’s Hannes Steinbach.
“Sources say that Steinbach, whose father, Burkhard, played alongside Mavericks legend Dirk Nowitzki on the German League team in their shared hometown of Wurzburg some 30 years ago, is among the prospects to have worked out for the Mavericks under consideration for the No. 9 pick,” Stein wrote on Saturday night.
Steinbach averaged 18.5 PPG while leading the country in rebounding at 11.8 RPG. At 6’10”, 248 pounds, and a 7’2″ wingspan, he also has the ability to stretch to three, hitting 18 of his 53 attempts in his lone year in college.
The Mavericks love the natives of Wurzburg, Germany. Obviously, the greatest player in franchise history is from there, but so was Maxi Kleber. An easy way to get the fans back on the team’s side is to get another German.
Drafting Hannes Steinbach Could Trigger Another Trade
If the Mavericks do end up leaving the 2026 NBA Draft with Hannes Steinbach, they would likely need to trade Daniel Gafford to make the roster work. Gafford is entering the first season of a three-year, $54 million contract extension, and with Dereck Lively II entering the final year of his rookie deal, they may extend him soon, even with the injuries.
Gafford drew trade interest at last season’s deadline, but they ended up hanging on to him once they traded Anthony Davis, believing they could get a first-round pick for him if they held out. Depending on how the draft shakes out Tuesday night, they might get that chance.
The Mavericks need to upgrade their backcourt, but if they’re able to trade back and add a player like Labaron Philon and a frontcourt player like Hannes Steinbach, it would be hard to complain.

Redesign debate intensifies as Dallas convention center faces costly delays
To redesign the Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center or not?
That’s the decision Dallas City Council members will face this week. The redesign is under consideration because the current plans would cut off access to the Jefferson Viaduct, affecting drivers coming from Oak Cliff.
City Manager Kimberly Tolbert is urging the council to vote against the redesign. Tolbert announced earlier this week that changing course would delay the project into 2030 and create significant economic impacts.
“Since we closed the center in 2025, we’ve lost 3,000 associated jobs from not having a fully functioning,” said Craig Davis, Visit Dallas CEO.
A redesign would cost nearly $600 million. Davis said the city stands to lose $1.5 million each month in anticipated hotel tax revenue during the closure, which was already expected to last through 2029.
“Then any potential delay past that is going to get exponentially worse. There’s reputational damage that’s taking place because we’ve moved groups that we had promised,” Davis said.
The City Council is expected to vote on the redesign on Wednesday.
