Dallas Mavericks dedicate cheesy bacon burger (with fried egg and Sriracha mayo) to Yogi Ferrell

Here's hoping you've got a cheat day coming up despite those New Year's resolutions. The Dallas Mavericks have just announced that they will sell a loaded cheeseburger in January to honor point guard Yogi Ferrell.

The Yogimania Burger is a 1/3-pound burger topped with cheddar cheese, bacon, a fried egg and Sriracha mayo. It's served with waffle fries.

Ferrell burst on the scene for the Mavericks last season after being signed to a 10-day contract. His solid early performances made "YogiMania" catch on in Dallas, and ended up landing him a two-year contract with the Mavs.

The burger will be for sale only until the end of January in a new restaurant open to all ticketholders called Valor Bar and Burger inside the American Airlines Center. Valor Bar also sells milkshakes and other burgers.

The Dallas Mavericks have made a sport of selling player-themed burgers. The Dirkburger, for instance, was served on a pretzel bun in honor of its German namesake, Dirk Nowitzki. The Texas Rangers are also known for similar concessions shenianigans. The Boomstick, a monstrous, two-foot-long hot dog, was named after Nelson Cruz's bat.
