Golden State Warriors preview

The Golden State Warriors are struggling a lot with injuries this season. With almost a majority of the players on their starting lineup on the injury list, they have struggled to compete.

After reaching five consecutive NBA finals, the Warriors are bound to hit the lottery as they are the worst team in the NBA this season. They are playing with a bunch of rookies and some average NBA players, and are struggling on both ends of the floor.

Key player - Draymond Green

The three-time All-Star has been struggling with form and injuries this season and yet, Draymond Green remains pivotal to the Warriors setup.

Dallas Mavericks preview

The Dallas Mavericks have been playing tremendously well this season led by superstar Luka Doncic. They currently have an 8-5 record and are playing good basketball.

They are backed by their two superstar potentials in Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis, and both have been fantastic for the Mavericks. The Mavs have also been relying a lot on their size and the ability of their players to spread the floor.
