Mavericks Look to Continue Winning Streak Against Pacers on the Road

Both teams are currently on a winning streak, with the Mavericks having won seven consecutive games and the Indiana Pacers securing five victories in their last seven matchups. Dallas is now in close pursuit of the Pelicans in the Southwest Division standings. The recent additions of Gafford and Washington have bolstered the Mavericks' lineup with much-needed strength and interior presence. Although the Pacers boast a high-powered offense, their defense has proved to be a weak point this season. Despite having home-court advantage, Indiana lacks a dynamic duo like Doncic and Irving to lead them. It is anticipated that the Mavericks will do what is necessary to secure a victory on the road in this matchup.
