Game Preview: Pacers vs. Mavericks

Indiana has been struggling, particularly in the absence of key player Tyrese Haliburton. Despite their challenges, the Pacers have fought hard, with two of their losses being extremely close. Their opener against the Oklahoma City Thunder went to double overtime, and they lost by just four points to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday.

In that game, Pascal Siakam stood out, scoring 33 points, grabbing 10 rebounds, and assisting eight times. The Pacers shot 35% from three-point range but missed nine free throws, which proved detrimental.

On the other hand, the Dallas Mavericks have also faced difficulties, particularly offensively. They are averaging just 108.0 points per game, placing them near the bottom of the league. A significant concern for the Mavericks is their lack of a true point guard. Anthony Davis, pulling an average of 25.0 points, 11.8 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks per game, is listed as probable due to an Achilles issue. Rookie Cooper Flagg has shown inconsistency, following a strong performance against the Toronto Raptors with a disappointing two-point game against Oklahoma City.
