WHAT: A second straight win at home
WHERE: American Airlines Center, Dallas, Texas
WHEN: 8:00 p.m. CST
HOW: Bally Sports Southwest
THE STORY: The Dallas Mavericks (14-13) face off against the Cleveland Cavaliers (17-11) at the wholly unreasonable hour of 8:00 pm, despite it being a home game for the Mavericks.
Okay, now that my whining about the start time is out of the way, we can note that the Cavs aren’t missing any key players due to injury, whereas Dallas is without Josh Green again due to an elbow sprain and Maxi Kleber is out due to a knee sprain.
