GAME THREAD: Dallas Mavericks at Phoenix Suns

WHO: Dallas Mavericks at Phoenix Suns

WHAT: A chance to get back on track.

WHERE: Talking Stick Resort Arena, Phoenix, AZ

WHEN: 8:00 p.m. CT

HOW: Fox Sports Southwest or NBA League Pass

THE STORY: The Mavericks looked a bit lost against the best in the West against the Clippers the other night, but tonight have a hopefully easier challenge in the Phoenix Suns. The Suns are 8-9 and have not looked abjectly terrible this year, despite DeAndre Ayton’s suspension for PEDs — largely because Aron Baynes has stepped up in Ayton’s absence.

The Mavericks face the Lakers on Sunday, so it would be nice to have this win going into that rematch. Legooooooo.
