The Dallas Mavericks is suffering from a slump. Here’s a report on the Mavericks rollercoaster week that gave their fans the broadest range of results. The week also featured a last-minute loss, convincing victories, a blowout at home, and a thrilling comeback.
If they want to gain momentum, they can do it in the upcoming five home games. Before that happens, we bring you the sports news reports about what happened last week.
The Good during Mavericks Rollercoaster Week
According to basketball betting sources, Jalen Brunson is having a career season. He is providing the much-needed consistency among the team’s role players. It is also good to see Brunson bounce back after a season-ending injury that left him out of the NBA bubble last season.
Brunson had to sit out four games for health and safety reasons. Thus, he didn’t have a good start. However, he averaged 12 points per game and scored 44 percent from the three-point area after returning to the active roster.
Last week, Brunson averaged 12 points, three assists, and five rebounds. Also, he was four out of ten from the three-point area. He is becoming the team’s point guard after Luka Doncic. Thus, Dallas needs more consistency from Brunson to improve its performance.
Bad News for Mavs
Although Dallas scored at will during the first half of the game against Golden State, they can’t stop the other team from doing the same thing. When they went cold in the second half, the Warriors kept on scoring. Thus, they lost 147-116 at home.
According to people who bet on Incheon Electroland Elephants, the Mavs had a long meeting in the locker room that delayed their media interviews. They watched the third quarter, where the Warriors scored 36 points. Also, they concluded that it was their defense that was lacking.
