The Spurs were dealing with a Covid-19 outbreak prior to the All-Star Break. Heading into the second half, the Spurs are looking close to full-strength for the first time in a while. Devin Vassell (health protocols) is the only player not expected to be available Wednesday vs. the Mavericks. LaMarcus Aldridge, Rudy Gay and Derrick White are all set to return to the lineup after practicing Tuesday.
The Mavericks picked up some nice momentum heading into the break with wins in five of six games. Dallas sits at 18-16 and in the 8-seed in the West. We’ve still got plenty of season left, but if things ended now, the Mavericks would be in the play-in tournament agains the Warriors and Grizzlies. Luka Doncic will need to do a lot to lift the Mavericks into a safer spot for the postseason and try and make a run at MVP after opening the season as favorite.
