Mavericks vs. Kings preview
The Kings came out on top against the Rockets by a score of 113-103 on Saturday to extend their winning streak to three. The Kings can attribute much of their success to Jonas Valanciunas, who dropped a double-double on 15 points and 14 rebounds.
Meanwhile, the Mavericks lost to the Bucks at home by a decisive 132-117 margin on Saturday. The loss unfortunately continues a disappointing trend for Dallas in their matchups with Milwaukee as they’ve now lost five in a row. The losing side was boosted by Kyrie Irving, who scored 31 points in that game and has now hit the 30-point plateau in three of his last five games.
Both sides are missing some key pieces due to injury. Domantas Sabonis (hamstring) is out for the Kings. The Mavs remain without Anthony Davis (adductor), Daniel Gafford (knee), Dereck Lively II (ankle), Caleb Martin (hip) and PJ Washington (ankle). See which side to back at SportsLine.
