It’s safe to say that the season hasn’t gone as planned in Dallas.
Dirk Nowitzki has played in only 15 of the Mavericks 40 games while veterans such as Deron Williams, Devin Harris, J.J. Barea, and Andrew Bogut have all missed time. Having a completely healthy rotation has been near impossible as the Mavericks find themselves at the bottom of the Western Conference with a 13-27 record.
But then the light at the end of the tunnel was found when Dallas welcomed back J.J. Barea to the lineup last Saturday against the Atlanta Hawks as they finally had a fully healthy rotation.
