Mavericks vs. Bucks Preview: 3 things Dallas needs to do to win this measuring stick game

The back-to-backs keep coming for the Mavericks (9-3) and their opponents early in the 2023-24 season. Wednesday’s 130-117 win at Washington completed Dallas’ second back-to-back of the season, and Saturday’s visit to Milwaukee to face the Bucks (7-4) will be the front end of their third back-to-back set. The Mavs are 3-1 in those games so far. For the Bucks, Saturday’s matchup is the back end of the team’s third back-to-back set. The Bucks went 2-2 in their first two back-to-backs.

Does that seem like a lot to anyone else?

If the back-to-backs factor in at all in this matchup, the Mavs will step on the floor at Milwaukee’s Fiserv Forum with at least a slight advantage in their legs to help offset the Bucks’ home-court advantage.
