Dallas is averaging 107.8 points per game while shooting 44.5% from the field. Anthony Davis leads the team, averaging 20.8 points and 10.2 rebounds, and P.J. Washington adds 15.2 points and 8.2 rebounds. D’Angelo Russell is averaging 10.8 points and 5.4 assists and has been the main playmaker through the first five games. Cooper Flagg contributes 13.4 points and has been active on both ends, giving Dallas more scoring options in the frontcourt.
The Mavericks are averaging 43.4 rebounds and 23.2 assists per game. Ball movement has improved, and the Mavericks have shot better from mid-range over the last two outings. Max Christie averages 11.8 points with solid perimeter shooting, while Klay Thompson adds 8.2 points per game. Several players, including Dereck Lively II, Daniel Gafford, Dante Exum, and Davis are listed as game-time decisions, which could create a depth problem late.
