The Dallas Mavericks have just lost to the Minnesota Timberwolves. They must improve their offensive performance, as they currently shoot only 40.8% from the field. Luka Doncic was also ejected early in the second half, indicating that he will need to improve if the Mavericks are to compete on the road against the Timberwolves.
On Monday, Luka Doncic was ejected from the Timberwolves game. It’s unclear whether he’ll suit up against the Timberwolves again tonight.
In the third quarter, Doncic was ejected from the game after arguing with an official about a non-foul call. In 28 minutes, he finished with 19 points (5-17 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 6-7 FT), six rebounds, seven assists, and one steal.
Dwight Powell C (Thigh), Tim Hardaway Jr. SG (Illness), and Dorian Finney-Smith SF (Hip) are all listed as questionable for this game. Both Josh Green (SG) and Maxi Kleber (PF) are injured.
The Minnesota Timberwolves dominated the Dallas Mavericks in their previous meeting, dominating on both ends of the court. They must stay hot in this game if they are to compete with the Mavericks at home.
Rudy Gobert C (Ankle) and Kyle Anderson SF (Back) are both questionable. Out are Taureen Prince (Shoulder), Jordan McLaughlin (Calf), and Karl-Anthony Towns (Calf).
McLaughlin hasn’t played since Dec. 9 due to a calf injury and is scheduled to miss another game on Wednesday. His next opportunity to wear the uniform will come on Friday, when the Timberwolves begin a four-game road trip in Boston.
