Dallas Mavericks vs New Orleans Pelicans preview
Dallas Mavericks
The Mavericks will face the Pelicans after recording a 120-116 hard-fought win over the Utah Jazz on Tuesday.
Jason Kidd’s men are sitting fifth in the Western Conference standings (34-32), tied to the Warriors. They will have to be more aggressive on the defensive end if they want to challenge the Pelicans on the road.
Luka Doncic is expected to lead the way on the offensive end of the court, as the Slovenian star is scoring 33.4 points per game on 50.4% shooting.
It will be the fourth time both teams will collide this season, with Dallas leading the head-to-head 2-1.
New Orleans Pelicans
Meanwhile, the Pelicans, the 10th-best team in the West Conference (31-34), go into the game after losing to the Sacramento Kings 123-108.
With Zion Williamson out due to injury, CJ McCollum is expected to lead the team against Dallas, as he is scoring 21 points per game. Brandon Ingram is also one of the key players that should help the team get a good result, as he recorded 24 points and seven assists last time out.
Willie Green’s team, though, will need to be consistent enough if they don’t want to lose their seventh game of their last eight overall.
