This evening, the Dallas Mavericks (11-25) take their two-game win streak into New Orleans (18-16), as the Pelicans look to extend their own win streak to four games. Game time is at 8:00 p.m ET.
For Dallas, this is another opportunity to steal a win from a team with a winning record.
One bright spot of this disappointing season, their ability to play their best against top-tier teams has been refreshing. Surprisingly, eight of their 11 wins so far have come against teams at .500 or better.
Two of those wins came earlier this week as they took down the Toronto Raptors (23-10) and Indiana Pacers (19-16).
