Welcoming in the Southwest Division-leading San Antonio Spurs, the Mavericks will try to build on Sunday’s performance during the second outing of eight out of 10 games at home. The Mavs will also attempt to avenge a 96-91 loss in San Antonio on Nov. 21 after putting up a valiant fight without the services of 13-time All-Star Dirk Nowitzki (right Achilles strain), starting point guard Deron Williams (left calf strain), center Andrew Bogut (calf) and fellow veterans J.J. Barea (left calf strain) and Devin Harris (right great toe sprain). And according to swingman Wesley Matthews, the Mavs could find themselves with back-to-back wins on their home floor by simply replicating the effort that they displayed against a tough New Orleans team.
