The NBA finally released the long-awaited second half of the 2020-21 schedule last week. The Dallas Mavericks have navigated a brutal schedule during the first half of the season, so there’s been hope that the rest of the slate would offer some relief. Now that we have a look at what’s ahead for the Mavericks this spring, it’s clear things should get easier. Although some challenges still lurk.
So far, the Mavericks have played one of the toughest schedules in the NBA. They’ve played the second hardest schedule in the league based on opponents’ win percentage, trailing only the Kings.
