While the Dallas Mavericks came away empty-handed from a tightly contested road trip, the Denver Nuggets didn't do any better through five not-so-close games at home.
The two struggling teams will look to regroup when the Mavericks return home to face the Nuggets on Saturday night.
After winning six in a row, including three straight on the road, Dallas (9-7) fell flat during a three-game trip through Oklahoma City, Memphis and San Antonio this week.
The Mavericks coughed up a double-digit third-quarter lead during a 117-114 loss to the Thunder and shot just 39.
