Dallas Mavericks: Kristaps Porzingis is the biggest matchup nightmare in NBA

For anyone who has been watching the Dallas Mavericks preseason up to this point, you have probably noticed that Kristaps Porzingis has struggled a bit from the field. After sitting out the first game, against the Oklahoma City Thunder, Porzingis made his preseason debut against the Detroit Pistons where he scored 18 points on a low 39% field goal percentage.

In his second game, KP really struggled against perhaps the most versatile defender in the league in Giannis Antetokounmpo. He scored only 11 points on about 31% shooting. Once again, Porzingis struggled from the field but was able to get plenty of shots up and get his feet underneath him.
