Dallas Mavericks\u00a0<\/a>are on the road to face the Brooklyn Nets at the Barclays Center Tuesday night.\u00a0<\/p>\nDallas snapped its 10-game losing streak with a 134\u2013130 win at Indiana on Sunday. Now the team is aiming for back-to-back victories.<\/p>\n
Unfortunately, the Mavs will play their fourth game without rookie Cooper Flagg, who remains sidelined with a left midfoot sprain. With superstar guard Kyrie Irving also sidelined for the season following knee surgery, the Mavs are forced to rely on veteran sharpshooter Klay Thompson and forward Khris Middleton to carry the scoring load.\u00a0<\/p>\n
For the Nets, they don’t have major injuries among its main rotation. The team led by Michael Porter Jr. and defensive anchor Nic Claxton presents an opportunity to exploit the shorthanded Mavs, though Dallas has historically pushed the pace regardless of personnel.<\/p>\n
Tip-off is set for 6:30 p.m.<\/p>\n
