dallas mavericks 104 vs denver nuggets 130

ANALYSIS

The first place Nuggets host the Mavericks as Dallas looks to win their first game with their newly formed superstar backcourt. This is the fourth and final matchup between the two squads this season. Dallas has taken two of three thus far with the past two games being decided by one point. 

The Mavericks (31-27) made huge headlines last week, trading for the NBA’s most controversial star, Kyrie Irving, to pair him with one of the best in the world, Luka Doncic. The two have yet to win a game for the Mavs while playing together, and Dallas is looking to get their first Wednesday night. Doncic has been outstanding yet again this season, averaging 33.2 points and 8.1 assists, to go along with 8.9 rebounds a game. 

The Nuggets (40-18) sit on top of the Western Conference and are poised to make a deep playoff run. Two-time defending MVP, Nikola Jokic is looking to become only the fourth player all time to win three consecutive awards. He would join the likes of NBA Hall of Famers’ Bill Russell, Wilt Chamberlain, and Larry Bird as the only others to achieve the feat. Jokic definitely has the numbers to do so, averaging 24.9 points, 11.4 rebounds, and 10.1 assists per game.
