Friday night was awful for the Dallas Mavericks.
The Charlotte Hornets, who entered the game as massive 16-point underdogs, absolutely dominated the Mavericks 117-109 at the American Airlines Arena in Dallas. The Hornets, despite being on the back end of a back-to-back series and being short several key players, put up 37 points in the first quarter and led almost the entire game. At one point, They even built up a huge 21-point lead in the third quarter.
While there are nine teams in the Western Conference within just a few of games of each other on the standings, the Mavericks are now at risk of missing the playoffs altogether. The Mavericks are just 7-12 since Irving landed with the Mavericks in the huge trade with the Brooklyn Nets, and the team is just 3-7 when both Irving and Doncic play together.
Now both Doncic and Irving have dealt with various injuries in recent weeks, which has undoubtedly complicated the adjustment process between the two. Irving, who finished with 18 points in the loss and shot just 1-of-8 from behind the arc, said they’re still working on their connection.
