The Dallas Mavericks are set to face the Houston Rockets in their upcoming game on Sunday. In their previous matchup, the Mavericks dominated the Rockets with Luka Doncic scoring an impressive 47 points. However, there are concerns as Doncic is now listed as "questionable" due to right knee soreness. Despite missing the last game against the Warriors, the 25-year-old's return will be crucial for the Mavericks who are aiming for a deep playoff run. The team will also be without key players Dereck Lively II, Josh Green, and Greg Brown III. Despite facing challenges with injuries, the Mavericks are currently in the 5th spot in the West with a solid record of 47-30. Coach Jason Kidd remains optimistic about Doncic's injury status, hinting at a possible return for the game against the Rockets. The duo of Doncic and Kyrie Irving show promising chemistry on the court which could lead to a successful playoff campaign for the Mavericks who boast a strong offensive lineup.
