Well, well, well, look at what we have here. The Dallas Mavericks are one of just three undefeated teams in the NBA, along with the Boston Celtics (3-0) and the Denver Nuggets (4-0), after three games. And on the strength of Luka Donu010diu0107 alone, they’ll be favored to win their next one and push it to 4-0 when they host the Chicago Bulls (2-2) on Wednesday.
The Mavs tossed aside the ailing Memphis Grizzlies their last time out on Monday, 125-110, behind 35 points, 12 rebounds and 12 assists from Donu010diu0107. Without the services of backcourt running mate Kyrie Irving, who sat out with a sprained left foot, the Mavericks got a lift from a surprisingly effective night from Derrick Jones Jr.
