LAL VS DAL Preview:

The Los Angeles Lakers host the Dallas Mavericks at Crypto.com Arena on Friday. The Mavericks (35-35) picked up a much-needed victory on Wednesday, beating the San Antonio Spurs in overtime. While it’s one of the worst teams in the NBA, Dallas isn’t much better with Kyrie Irving and Luka Doncic both sidelined. There were 14 ties and 24 lead changes in that bloody overtime, but the Mavericks went into overtime with a 13-0 score to take command. Christian Wood led the club with 28 points and 13 rebounds, his best game in months. If they get those two superstars back and get more consistency from Wood, this team should stay above .500 for the rest of the season.

The Lakers (34-36) were ripped off on Wednesday, beaten by the Houston Rockets. It’s the second-worst team in the NBA, but a Los Angeles team without Anthony Davis and LeBron James will struggle to compete. The good news is that AD is only resting for this game, so he should be ready to get back here. LeBron is out for a few more weeks, though, and it remains to be seen if this team can stay in the playoffs if he’s out. The Lakers are currently 10th in the West, but only 0.5 wins ahead of the Utah Jazz and Portland Trail Blazers behind them. If this team makes it into the playoffs with healthy Davis and LeBron, a team that nobody wants to play after the trade deadline, add reinforcements to support those two. It was the fourth and final time these two teams met, with Dallas winning two of the three. They have won a total of six of their past eight games against Los Angeles.
