The Dallas Mavericks, led by Dirk Nowitzki, will meet the Oklahoma City Thunder, led by Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant, in the first round of the NBA Western Conference Playoffs, with the first game of the best-of-seven series on Saturday, April 16, 2016, at Chesapeake Energy Arena in Oklahoma City.
We'll have up-to-the-minute scoring and stats here throughout the game.
The Mavericks had a chance to finish fifth headed to the final night of the regular season but will settle for sixth after they could have dropped all the way to seventh. But they were spared another postseason matchup with the Spurs with the Grizzlies' loss at Golden State.
