GSW is set to take on Dallas Wings in NBA 2021-22 on Wednesday, 26 January 2022 at 08:30 AM IST
Coming off a 104-91 win against the Memphis Grizzlies, the Dallas Mavericks have looked like a highly competitive team as they defeated one of the best in the league. WIth another win on the books, Dallas will continue to climb up the conference ladder.
The Golden State Warriors, meanwhile, are coming off a close 94-92 win against the Utah Jazz. Although theyre on a two-game winning streak, there is some concern regarding the current form theyre in.
Tuesdays game will be the second installment of the four-game season series between the two teams. With the Mavericks taking a 1-0 lead after winning their previous game in Dallas, the Golden State Warriors will look to level the playing field as they host the Mavericks this time around.
Coming off their impressive display against the Memphis Grizzlies, the Dallas Mavericks have looked like a playoff contending team as they rack up a 4-1 record in their last five games.
The Mavericks have been a dominant side thanks to the combined availability of Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis. With both stars at Dallas disposal, the duo finally displayed sparks of what they should have been when the two were paired together.
The game against Memphis saw Doncic dominate with 37 points, 11 rebounds and nine assists. Porzingis also contributed 15 points, eight rebounds and six blocks.
The understated highlight for the game was the Dallas Mavericks defense against Memphis. Clogging the paint, blocking shots and even forcing turnovers, Dallas seemed locked in defensively for the majority of the game.
A key player for the Dallas Mavericks in Tuesday nights game will be Kristaps Porzingis. Since making his return from injury earlier this month, Porzingis has been a much-needed addition to the Mavericks rotation.
The Latvian big-man is rightfully a game-changer for the Dallas Mavericks. Being able to shoot from midrange and from three-point territory, Porzingis makes use of his length to take virtually uncontested jump shots. He has also been a huge contributor on the rebounding and defensive side of the game.
The Golden State Warriors will head into their next game on a two-game winning streak. Although this should be considered a positive, the last two wins have seen the Warriors cut things very close.
The Warriors team has seemed out of sorts to start the new year. Although Klay Thompsons return has been a welcome sight, without Draymond Green on the floor, Golden State looks like a completely different unit.
Steph Curry continues to struggle to find his shot. Shooting 1-13 from beyond the arc in his previous outing, Curry being an effective player will be essential to the Golden State Warriors success.
Heading into their next game, the Warriors are likely to see Klay Thompson sit out after he tweaked his knee earlier last week. With questionable morale around the team, the Warriors will hope to secure a win to return to their winning form.
The Golden State Warriors will look to Steph Curry to be a key player for the side in their matchup at home.
Although Curry is going through one of the worst shooting slumps of his career, it is difficult to discount the possibility of him getting hot in a hurry. Still recording an average of 22.3 points over his last 10 games, Curry continues to be a threat to any opposing team.
Steph Curry also finds ways to contribute to his team when his shot isnt falling. By acting as a decoy or moving the ball around, Curry seamlessly becomes part of the Golden State Warriors system and helps it function.
