I'm thinking lauri and Clarkson should be back? Though I kinda hope lauri is back but Clarkson is still out. I don't think we have seen the starting lineup with lauri but without Clarkson yet have we?

Few interesting facts:
  • Mavs are way ahead of us in the standings, but both teams are actually 4-6 in their last 10
  • We are a horrible road team (1-9), but Mavs arent great with home court advantage either (5-4)
  • Mavs are a bottom 10 defense in the NBA (25th in DRtg, we are 23rd). We have only played two games against bottom 10 ranked defenses (CHI, IND) thus far all season, and 8 games against defenses ranked in top 10 (3 POR, 2 MIN, LAL, ORL, LAC)
  • Both teams like to jack up 3s, as Mavs rank #1 and we rank #8 in 3PA per game. Mavs have hit 37.0% (12th in NBA) for the season and we have hit 35.2% (23rd).
Interesting game but despite Dallas having a rough stretch, we need big bounces and/or hot shooting to win this as our offense is likely gonna struggle again with Lauri, JC and KO out.
