The Dallas Mavericks (33-31) face off against the Phoenix Suns (34-29) in Dallas at noon on Sunday on ABC. It’s the fourth and final time the teams will play this season. The Mavericks lead the season series 2-1, but there’s not much to take away from those games, because both teams have been remade.
The Suns now have Kevin Durant, and the Mavericks have Kyrie Irving, both acquired in separate blockbuster trades. It’s too early to say whether the trades will be successful, but in the short term, it provides a bit of novelty to the last matchup.
