The Dallas Mavericks welcome the LA Lakers in their next match in the NBA. Heading into the second meeting with LA, Dallas is 12th in the West standings, eight games behind their fifth-placed visitors. Read on to find our prediction for this match.
The Mavericks have won their last four matches, which is their best run of form this season. Jason Kidd’s men started this purple patch with back-to-back victories over the Jazz and have gone on to see off the Knicks and Warriors.
They defeated the Warriors at home 123-115 last time out to improve to 19-26 and place themselves within reach of the playoff places at the halfway point. Anthony Davis remains sidelined, but Daniel Gafford should be available for this game.
The Lakers are going through a dip in form, which has led them to slide further down in the standings. J.J. Redick’s men, who are now just one loss from dropping into the play-in bracket, have won just three of their last nine games.
They were defeated last time out by city rivals the Clippers 112-104, snapping a run of back-to-back victories. The loss to the Clippers weakened LA’s record to 26-17 and left them 10 games off the pace in the West.
This will be Luka Doncic’s second trip to Dallas following his blockbuster trade last season, and an interesting atmosphere is to be expected. Austin Reaves remains sidelined with a calf injury.
