JJ Redick has the Lakers surging recently, winning 17 of their last 21 games. They could overtake the second seed in the West on Sunday night if they beat the LA Clippers. That's a big difference from the Mavericks, who are fighting for position in the play-in region.

Dallas Mavericks forward Olivier-Maxence Prosper was ruled out for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies, which seemed a little out of the blue, considering he played 25 minutes against the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday night.

This trade will be talked about for generations, and it is because the front office cannot keep Doncic’s name out of their mouths — and not in a good way.

The LA Lakers will host the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday in what is arguably the most highly anticipated game of the ongoing NBA regular season.

Luka Doncic will face the Mavericks for the first time since being traded to the Lakers, but Anthony Davis will not be available for Dallas.
