The Dallas Mavericks (21-42) visit the Toronto Raptors (35-27) in an NBA 2025-26 matchup on Sunday, March 8, at Scotiabank Arena.
Dallas and Toronto have met once this season, with the Mavericks earning a high-scoring 139-129 victory at home in October. Cooper Flagg put up an all-around performance of 22 points, 4 rebounds, and 4 assists in that win.
However, the Mavericks have hit a rough patch lately, dropping six consecutive contests. They're entering this game after a 120-100 defeat to the Boston Celtics, after only making 40.9% of their shots. Klay Thompson was the lone bright spot, coming off the bench to put up 19 points on 6-11 shooting from the three-point line.
Kyrie Irving and Dereck Lively II will continue to sit out for the Mavericks.
On the other hand, the Raptors are looking to rebound from a 115-107 road loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Toronto's defense allowed Minnesota to convert 51.9% of their attempts, including 41.9% from deep.
It was the team's fourth loss in the last five games.
The positive outlook for the Raptors on Sunday is their relatively healthier roster. Brandon Ingram is listed as questionable due to an illness, but he did play in that loss to the Timberwolves.
