Dallas is set to hit the hardwood again after an abnormally long recess, getting three full days of rest over the Thanksgiving holiday. A scheduling oddity not shared by Washington, who will be playing the second night of a back to back in Dallas after playing in OKC on Friday.
Doncic was back after missing three games with an ankle and knee injury, and he played well in the OT win against the Clippers. Hopefully, he’ll have benefitted as much as anyone else from the few extra days to ease some of the bumps and bruises that accumulate in the course of an NBA season.
