On the road against a hyped Doncic, is gonna be tough but I like our chances for this one.
It's gonna be fun to see Dunn as a Doncic's primary defender. Hopefully he can stay out of foul trouble, easier said than done.
With LeBron out we have a nice opportunity.

Injuries:
SunsGrayson Allen OUT.
LakersDorian Finney-Smith QUESTIONABLE.
LeBron James OUT.
Rui Hachimura OUT.
Gabe Vincent QUESTIONABLE.

Last regular season game in EU friendly time so hope it's a good one, most importantly a win. Somehow feeling better about this one with Luka playing as that gives extra motivation to Booker and KD. Hopefully Dunn is still starting with Richards back at C, not sure what was Bud's motivation to put him in SL for last game, but obviously Suns don't have a better player to defend Doncic.
As a warmup for this game is DAL - PHI. If Mavs lose and Suns win both of b2b games they become 10th I think.

I expect a Mavs win at home against a depleted Sixers, but hopefully I am wrong about it.

Yeah, I know only 3 of Sixers active players. Apparently they need to finish top 6 to preserve their pick so tanking hard. Looks like Suns will have to beat good teams to pass the Mavs and show they deserve to sneak into the play-in.

91-84 for the Sixers at the moment. Interesting 4th quarter.

TOs from Booker and KD and zero rim protection, nothing new.

20 million FTs for the Lakers and no one on the Suns can hit a wife open shot, let alone wide open 3s.

Durant is high. Just had no idea who to defend and let Luka shoot open 3. Add TOs and bad shooting.
