Game Preview
These two teams are looking to get back into the win column when the Dallas Mavericks face the Brooklyn Nets on Thursday. The Mavs (1-2) dropped a 113-111 decision at New Orleans on Tuesday, while the Nets (1-3) lost 110-99 at Milwaukee on Wednesday. Brooklyn, who led by 12 at halftime, flamed out in the second half against the Bucks. The Mavericks had a chance to pull out a last-second victory against the Pelicans, but Luka Doncic missed a 33-foot 3-pointer from the left wing as time expired.
Tip-off from Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y., is set for 7:30 p.m. ET. Dallas leads the all-time series 48-33, including four of the last five meetings. Doncic seems to get stronger every year and continues to lead the Dallas attack. Despite missing the potential game-winning shot on Tuesday, Doncic was impressive, pouring in 37 points and grabbing 11 rebounds. He also dished out seven assists. So far this season, he is averaging 34.7 points, nine rebounds and 7.7 assists.
Despite that, Dallas isn’t a lock to cover the Mavericks vs. Nets spread. That’s because Brooklyn has been able to count on forward Kevin Durant to come through when needed. In Wednesday’s loss to the Bucks, Durant poured in 33 points, the third time in four games he has scored 30 or more. He is hitting 52% of his shots from the floor and is 7 of 22 (32%) from 3-point range. Durant is looking to follow-up on a strong 2021-2022 season, which saw him average 29.9 points, 7.4 rebounds and 6.4 assists.
The Nets have been terrible defensively so far, giving up 130 points or more in two of their three games, and will have trouble slowing down the Mavericks, so it’s likely that the Mavs can take an interesting victory back home from Brooklyn.
