The Dallas basketball players face the Lakers in Los Angeles, who are also fighting for a place among the top ten in the West. Luka Dončić will miss the fourth game in a row. Kyrie Irving and Tim Hardaway are back in the lineup.
The Lakers swept New Orleans with a stellar first-half performance on Tuesday, then took a cold shower in Houston on Wednesday without Anthony Davis. Last ranked Rockets gave them the bitterest defeat of the season (114:110). Davis will play against the Mavericks, LeBron James and Mo Bamba will be missing.
