THE STORY: The Mavericks host the Blazers tonight at 7:30 pm at home. Portland hopes to avenge an earlier loss to the Mavericks this year when Spencer Dinwiddie, Luka Doncic, and other Mavericks caught fire down the stretch to bury the Blazers from outside.
Dallas is struggling at the moment, coming off a beat down of a loss to the Cavaliers while also dealing with what might be the season-long loss of Maxi Kleber and Josh Green still missing time because of an elbow issue.
