What to Know

The Mavericks will be in front of their home fans on Saturday, but a look at the spread shows they might need that home-court advantage. They will take on the Oklahoma City Thunder at 9:00 p.m. ET on Saturday.

The point spread may have favored the Mavericks on Friday, but the final result did not. They fell 108-94 to Memphis.

Meanwhile, everything went Oklahoma City's way against Los Angeles on Thursday as Oklahoma City made off with a 133-110 win. The Thunder were down 35-21 with 2:21 left in the first quarter but they still came back for the handy 23-point victory.

Dallas has yet to win a matchup at home this season, leaving them with a 11-7 record. Those victories were due in large part to their offensive dominance across that stretch, as they averaged 121.0 points per game. As for Oklahoma City, they have been performing well recently as they've won seven of their last nine games, which provided a nice bump to their 12-6 record this season.

This contest is one where the number of possessions is likely to be a big factor: The Mavericks haven't given up the ball easily this season, having only averaged 11.1 turnovers per game (they're ranked first in turnovers per game overall). However, it's not like the Thunder struggle in that department as they've been averaging only 12.5 per game. Given these competing strengths, it'll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.
